[SNMP4J] retrieving large tables in SNMP is very slow

Hi Barry,

The TableUtils class has an async retrieval interface
too. Have you analyzed the packets exchanged with the
agent? There are many agents with errors in their
GETBULK implementation which could significantly slow
down the operation.

Best regards,
Frank
