   As far as I can recall, it was part of Slackware 3.4 (LINUX) in 1997.

   The two advantages are:  More addresses (vastly) available and the
destination address is at the front of the packets and are arraigned
best for being sorted by the routers without having to digest many
bites of each packet, speeding the traffic flow.
