Preloading IP stack arp table

[Bruce Robinson]

Hi Greg,

I'm working on the development of an embedded controller that will be 
tethered to a PC running Windows or Linux. I'm curious, with ethernet do 
the ARP's take up a significant amount of time? I assumed they only 
occurred on the initial communication.
