-----------------------------------------
actually, your metrics setup is better than mine...let me see how I can lift
them

> Even with lazy seek, tests can show that sometimes a short-distance forward
> seek is triggering a close + reopen, because the threshold for the seek is
> simply available bytes in the inner stream.
> A configurable threshold would allow data to be read and discarded before
> that seek. This should be beneficial over long-haul networks as the time to
> set up the TCP channel is high, and TCP-slow-start means that the ramp up of
> bandwidth is slow. In such deployments, it will better to read forward than
> re-open, though the exact "best" number will vary with client and endpoint.
