I'm terribly sorry, I was strangely thinking of a separate traffic shaping daemon that 
co-exists with xinetd when I made this statement. You are very correct, Xinetd *by 
itself* should only be used for infrequent services since it instances a service per 
connection.

Thank you for exposing me for the dirty liar I am :)
