Abstract: When a transport protocol segment arrives at a receiving
system, the receiving system must determine which
application is to receive the protocol segment. This decision
is typically made by looking up a protocol control
block (PCB) for the segment, based on information in
the segment's header. PCB lookup (a form of demultiplexing)
is typically one of the more expensive operations
in handling inbound protocol segments [Fel90]. (Update)

.... it may be surprising that Demux is so small, under 20 microseconds, given reports that this operation is a bottleneck BibRef[21]BibRef[45]. This is because our single user testing environment only has a single connection, and hence a single entry in the list of protocol...
.... calculation [18] Because high end systems usually have numerous active connections, packet demultiplexing is also an expensive operation [16]. A small embedded device does not have the necessary processing power to have multiple protection domains and the power to run a...
