    Out of order delivery is pretty easy to get with or without
variable speed of light delays.  Queueing and packet sizing are each
happy to provide on their own.

    TCP doesn't deal well with it, at least if you're mentioning it in
the same breath as performance.  This is probably so for anything that
has to restitch something that has been fragemented and scrambled.
