Vint's original comment addressed the curiousity that MILISI datagrams were fatter than the others. Your data show this to be true in four of the five samples. My comment that MILISI exibited more breakage than the others was not intended as a blanket indictment and, in fact is not justified in view of your data. My suspicion that ISI is indeed special is confirmed both because of the consistently high datagram size, as well as the increasing share of the system load, going from number four at the beginning of your sample history consistently upwards to number one at the end. MILISI is again number one this week in both departments. My aside to Vint that I would "alert the field operatives" has come to pass and you have broken cover. Your next assignment, should you choose to accept it, is to tell us why. Dave -------
