Apple suggests creating this Startup Item to set one's MTU when you boot up. It's a bit of 10.2-era advice. Any sense that it is still worth doing now that we're at 10.5?

Note that Leopard automatically changes the MTU to suit your connection.

Really? You mean 1500 isn't the default?

Apple - Mac OS X Leopard - Features - 300+ New FeaturesIt says:
Self-Tuning TCP
Let Leopard adjust TCP buffer size automatically. Get optimum application performance, especially in high-bandwidth/high-latency environments.
Is "Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) Buffer Size" the same as Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU)? Or rather, does the TCP limit how high the MTU can be set? I guess it makes sense that the MTU can be only as large as the buffer it passes through....
