The *_RR tests seem to show a drop in througput and corresponding 
increases in service demand - could that be because things like TSO et 
al cannot mask much of anything in the way of a path-length increase?

 From the annotations, I'm ass-u-me-ing that NS was only used on the 
netperf side and not both netperf and netserver side?

happy benchmarking,
