If the tool were to list ISPs in descending order of a bloaty factor from best (like this
one)   http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/375736
to worst (like I don't know yet), what would be the ranking factor?

Call B the "blue" series of latencies.
Call G the "idle" series
Call O the "orange" series

What is fn1(fn2(B),fn2(G),fn2(O)) that generates an open-ended bloat factor, where 0 is no problem ?
What is fn1() that takes a series of latencies and produces one latency?
What is fn1() that takes three latencies, and produces a bloat factor?

And then having obtained a "bloat factor" for one result, do you combine them using an average?

Also should there be another input such as connection speed.
Should higher speed lines be held to a higher standard?

The "bloat factor" can be what is reported next to Ping on a test result.
Should it be an infinite set of numbers from 0 .. infinity or should it be a grade 
A+ down to F ?
(a grade would be more user-friendly).
