[rescue] Re: Wang Machines

[Joshua Johnston]

Uptime is good, but what's really important is just how capably your
Wang can push packets through the pipe it's used on.  If you have a Wang
that can't transmit its data, it's effectively cut off and useless.
It's important to make sure your Wang is doing its job without losing
too many packets, and is up just as often as it needs to be.  It's also
important to keep the latency down, because you don't want your Wang's
packets to get through the pipe after it's lost relevance.

I've always been told that 'uptime' was the important metric...
