Well, you cannot do anything about the bd latency. This is due to the fact
your signal has to travel to the orbit and back.

SAT Uplinks are only good for batch file transfer. For this you should also
have an Operating system which allows Large TCP Windows and possible some
additional Features like Selective Ack. It is quite a large topic to
optimize TCP over FAT Pipes with high lattency. Linux has some of those
Features. So you might actually be able to transfer with 12kcps for large
very large [BFiles. HTTP with Keepalive might also help to reduce the
Problem of Keep alives. One thing to increase the Web Experience is to use
active caches, so the cache will often used pages at nite.
