[ale] Calculating latency

[chip]

Depends on the TCP Window size, latency, and available bandwidth for
theoretical minimum time.  Have a read through this:
http://bradhedlund.com/2008/12/19/how-to-calculate-tcp-throughput-for-long-distance-links/
.   If there's congestion or packet loss on the links then things get
a
bit more complicated.  But this should get you an idea of where to start.
