In reply to Albert Green.

Hi Albert,

thanks for your comment - apologies but I'm not clear on your question so my response may not suffice.

Response time is not directly related to bandwidth for application traffic. Response time is a function of latency as far as the network goes, however, most networks have contention, meaning other applications are attempting to use the same bandwidth and if there's not enough bandwidth for everyone, then some of the traffic must be queued or even worse dropped (and then retransmitted). Its in this latter case of congestion where bandwidth increases may improve application response time.

As for your question on determining which apps need traffic reducement, please drop me a line and if you can elaborate further I'll do my best to answer your query.

thanks!
