Fair enough, I think we should go this way for now, please post here the patch that provides the experimental feature of explicitely setting the packet size, interested people can try and use it and report their findings, later we can get back and possibly merge the patch if it proves useful.
Basically my patches from a month or two ago would do this with a few changes. I'd say merge average patch, I'll update mine to go on top (tomorrow??) and allow a mechanism to switch to use it.
