How does a 50Mbyte MTU sound like?
Sounds like a 10 terabyte packet buffer per interface in the router to me. Sure will be spiffy to have a nice fine granularity of 50 megs per packet for TCP backoff - handy thing that ever since rfc1323 you can have 32-bit window sizes, or were these guys proposing dispensing with the window altogether since 99.9999% of the time the data you have to send will be under 50 megs? I'll channel Randy for a moment and encourage my competitors to do this... on their *own* networks, please. ---Rob
