Cool.
  "Because miliseconds were fairly abstract"
  "higher is better"
  "a few hundred, a few thousand, just like your car engine"

. o O ( wait... so can I redline my network, just like my car engine? )

Is there a web page that I can point C-suite people to that would explain
stuff, and then link to this video?

I know two rural wireless networks with 1s to 10s standing delays.

It has been discussed recently.  It is "Rounds Per Minute", Apple's new measure 
of network responsiveness.

I just finished up an insanely difficult (but profitable) stint with
apple working on (among other things)
a new "rpm" metric for "responsiveness under normal working
conditions", for which we just established a new mailing list here -

and hope to march that concept towards plentiful open source code and
benchmarks in the ietf, and here, in the coming months.


What is "rpm"? I only know of the Redhat Package Manager and revolutions 
per minute. I don't see it explained on the mailing list page or in the 
mailing list postings.
