Those bozos are suggesting to reduce MTU from 1500 to 576
to "improve performance", so packets "won't fragment in
backbones"! The bright idea to fix CTS/RTS setting didn't
come along in their brilliant minds.
Here goes the average packet size. Down the drain...
Now what do we do to control the damage?
I also think it's a good time to measure the gullibilty of
the general public by measuring packet size distribution :)
