OK, so we agree there is no data loss then? Now then, the question is
how can the TCP still have a role in SQ then? As you say lost packets
might have an impact. Best way to pursue that thought is to studie the
network layers on the Touch and see if we can monitor request for
packets. And if  we can prove that, then ask us why. Is it possible to
update or optimize the network driver on the Touch? Or maybe some
simple kernel parameters.

As I see it there's no point at this stage to look at all possible
settings on the LAN adapter on the server. And for a group studie
rather hopeless as most of us use "servers" with onboard network chips.

If one was to pursue that road one need to use crossed drop cable
between the server and the Touch or else the switch will alternate the
result and we learn nothing.

Another thing I'm wondering. Can the network changes be heard on a
Touch without kernel parameter modifications? Maybe the developer team
already had tweaked the kernel for better network performance?
