Moving this convo to bloat-devel to reduce the noise level. I got my
somewhat debloated network up late last night and fired off the Path:
openrd <-> wndr3700 <-> davepc With loadlatency.

The wndr3700 has the buffer size in the ath9k driver reduced to a depth
of 3, TX_RETRIES of 4, txqueuelen of 2, and davepc is using
debloat-testing with the iwllagn driver, txqueuelen of 4. The two
devices connect at 36Mbit, however.

The conditions of this test are (purposely) poor, the two wireless
devices are separated by 3 floors, and 2 concrete walls. In other (iperf
related) testing I've seen 13% packet loss on ping.
