The values derived in the Advanced io Graph, using the tcp.analysis.ack_rtt,
are inaccurate. When compared with Ethereal, they vary greatly, including
Wireshark having values for RTT's to previous TCP acknowledgements-only and
including user wait times in the calculations.
This has been an extremely valuable tool for measuring how the QOS is
functioning, by filtering graphs on different TCP ports and comparing RTT's.
This was written up previously as a bug, because it was not functioning at all.
It is now functioning, but has inaccurate data.
Any attention would be appreciated so we don't have to go between Ethereal and
Wireshark depending on whether we are looking for better decodes or better
RTT's.
