Fragmentation won't hurt you that much, and it doesn't even apply to
opens, since those operations are significantly smaller.  The
performance gains higher in the stack from a larger rsize/wsize
generally outweigh the savings in frame size optimization.  Of course,
jumbo frames are always a good idea, but again, doesn't help here.
