The following statement is based on my experience with these patches:
I didn't notice much of a difference from these patches when I was
copying a certain {large-ish, constantly updating} file from a site on
the West Coast to a site in NH.
I probably had around 100 samples in my data-set, and I just didn't
see a difference. All of these samples related to "scp" operations
that were occurring over the public Internet. I tried as much as
possible to perform my experiments during times of the day in which
the network was quiet (but this was/is a crapshoot on the general
Internet, of course).
I had high-hopes for these patches....specifically the parts of the
patches that did things with increasing buffer sizes. If I could have
gotten this particular file to arrive in NH a bit faster this would
have made my work a bit easier.
Like I said, this is just my experience with these patches.
