I am still investigating the very long messageSendTime's. One
interesting question: DataRequests are well over an ethernet frame. They
are thus huge packets. High messageSendTime's seem to correlate with
large messagePacketSizeSent's. A DataRequest will get sent in two IP
packets, or more. Now, we use the FieldSet format for just about
everything. If we were to make the fields in a DataRequest binary, using
some simple substitution format e.g. 
<fieldname>=<special byte><length byte><binary data>
rather than <fieldname>=<hex> as we do now... we could get DataRequests
down to a reasonable size.
