 and promising: Web clients benefit most from the smaller refill intervals
 and data transmission is smoothed. Though, I'm a little surprised by the
 divergence of the red line (100ms) on page 4 of Kevin's runs. For me the
 outlier looks like an anomaly/ artifact. Are there any reasons which
 explain such a behavior?

 suggest that Kevin's 10 ms line is the anomaly/artifact, not the 100 ms
 line. Things are better when CircuitPriorityHalflife is set.

 Exciting. I'm curious how stable these results are when you (and Kevin) do
 another run. Are some of the lines we're looking at (and trying to read
 meaning into) just randomly drawn? :)
