This is a log of packet size from my node over a period of 20 minutes.
Actually of my 2 nodes, and probably a little TCP traffic too, but not
much.
Interesting features:
76-150-byte packets: 239451 * 100 = 23,945,100
1126-1200-byte packets: 17657 * 1150 = 20,305,550
Of the first group, 56 bytes per packet is overhead, so 13,409,256 bytes
overhead out of that 23MB - something like a quarter of the whole.
Obviously having many variable sized small packets is a bad thing for
security, but surely it is a good thing for latency to be as low as
possible by sending messages immediately?
Another interesting point: If more than half of our bandwidth usage is
on small packets, then our policy of only bandwidth limiting large
packets cannot possibly work.
