Better Bandwidth Utilization

jtorin writes "Daniel Hartmeier (of OpenBSD fame) has written a short but interesting article which explains how to better utilize available bandwidth. In short it gives priority to TCP ACKs over other types of traffic, thereby making it possible to max both upload and download bandwidth simultaenously. Be sure to check ot the nice graphs! Also note the article on OpenBSD Journal. OpenBSD 3.3 beta is now stable enough for daily use, so why not download a snapshot from one of the mirrors and try it out?"

so exactly how many people is this comment directed to? I mean, might we get as much as 1% of the readership checking out the graphs before certain unfortunate server suffers a horrible death / temporary trauma?
