 Reducing the frequency of acknowledgments can improve connection and
 endpoint performance in the following ways:
 
-- Sending UDP packets can be very CPU intensive on some platforms. Reducing
-  the number of packets that only contain acknowledgments reduces the CPU
-  consumed at a data receiver. Experience shows that this reduction can be

-- Similarly, receiving and processing UDP packets can also be CPU intensive, and
-  reducing acknowledgment frequency reduces this cost at a data sender.
