Summary:  QoS, dynamic connection limiting so we don't flood our connections

Original Submission:  Control packets and other non-"data" packets should have 
priority over data-transfer packets.  SYN (connecting), ACK (acknowlege of a 
data packet), SACK, FIN, etc, packets should have a higher priority than normal 
data-transfer packets.  Packets to and from servers (control messages, 
searching, retrieval of sources) should be last to be dropped from rate 
limiting.  Soft and Hard limits for downloading... Hard would be manually set.  
Soft would be an intelligently determined (auto-magically) limit.  When we 
reach our soft limits we shouldn't initiate any more download connections 
(unless we can get rid of the slow ones and replace them with faster more 
stable ones?).  Anyways, this is just an overview of what I have written down 
somewhere, expect a follow up.  =P
