In my current implementation at home, I use TC/HTB rules to priortise outgoing acks. This definately helps esp when doing huge Linux ISO dl's through Bittorrent.
Why delay Acks?? Just because you want to delay/make/simulate the normal
TCP behaviour of making the window smaller??
...because "we" don't want bittorrent to go faster....
The goal is to slow things down, not speed them up. Granted though that prioritising acks is useful up until the client is using the desired amount of bandwidth, after that we want to slow them down again
