I haven't hit the fan, yet....

I feel like the rate has never been really accurate, or perhaps it's just
that we're jut not properly accounting in our measurement tools (netperf),
for the ACK bandwidth.  But my current "limited" rate is set higher than
anything I've ever measured, and it's clearly still working.  Part of my
next rounds of testing are to keep pushing that up until it's clear that
I've tripped over the "real" rate.

I fear that's going to be a continual issue while we ask for things that
most people don't understand that they want/need.  But I think that we'll
have an easier time if we're talking with a chipset vendor (like Marvell)
vs an OEM (like Netgear), given the relative distance each has from the
kernel drivers...
