On a different tangent, has anyone got pointers to
studies of TCP retransmission rates in the context of
'typical' consumer broadband access? (And, e.g.,
the (dis?)incentive for a dodgy ISP to reduce packet loss
rates if they're also counting retransmitted packets against
a customer's weekly/monthly usage cap.)

cheers,
