 	Oh ,  Sorry you were talking about latncy not Packet loss .
 	While I do understand that icmp responses ARE Low priority the above 
still gives some useful info .  IMO Packet losses like the above are far worse 
than latency ,  But as far as an eyeball networks users experience makes 
absolutely no difference .

> IMO as we enter the 'post-gigabit era', an extra 1 Gbps to the home will 
matter less than 100 ms or 500 ms lower working latency (optimally sub-50 ms, 
if not sub-25 ms). The past is exclusively speed-focused -- the future will be

> Speed + working latency + reliability/resiliency + consistency of QoE + 
> security/protection + WiFi LAN quality.

 	One more set of nit's ,  "security/protection" by who's standard should 
this be taken from ,  Eyeball users ,  Eyeball network Operators ,  His 
upstreams ,  US Gov ,  Nato , ... ?

 	Where can each of those mentioned in the above have their input listened 
too & acted apon ?
