+Network Working Group Alex McKenzie
+RFC #334 BBN
+NIC 9927 1 May 1972
+
+
+ Network Use on MAY 8
+
+
+
+ Vint Cerf of UCLA Network Measurement Center has just indicated
+to us a requirement to carry out certain performance experiments on
+the network prior to installation of the new IMP software on May 15.
+These experiments are designed to measure network performance under
+heavy traffic load to a single site, and thus may cause the network to
+"lock up" such that _no_ traffic can flow (a problem which the new IMP
+software is de- signed to prevent). Vint has indicated to us that ARPA
+regards these experiments as extremely important in spite of the
+possibility of lockup; we have therefore agreed to assist with the
+experiments and scheduled them for May 8.
+
+ Although we do not know whether these experiments will cause
+lockup, we suggest that sites do not schedule important network work
+for Monday, May 8. We apologize for the lateness of this announcement.
