   You have already posted this very same message to
        [EMAIL PROTECTED]
   and:
        [EMAIL PROTECTED]
   lists.  If you don't get reply from those (netdev mainly), the
   linux-kernel is not going to yield cheers either.

   People that know the networking code intimately are presently
   "somewhat" busy,   Be patient, repeat this topic at  netdev
   list after about a week.

        TCP Timestamps ?
        (Which Linux does use if the other end supports them too.)

        Of course, what is "rate" ?  Units of something per units
        of time ?  Packets ?  Payload bytes ?   How does the size
        of payload data in the packets affect the "rate" ?
