    Packet Distributor mode of operation
 
+There are two modes of operation of the API in the distributor Library, one which sends one packet at a time
+to workers using 32-bits for flow_id, and an optiomised mode which sends bursts of up to 8 packets at a time
+to workers, using 15 bits of flow_id. The mode is selected by the type field in the ``rte_distributor_create function``.
