You have already posted this very same message to linux-net@vger.kernel.org and: netdev@oss.sgi.com lists. If you don't get reply from those (netdev mainly), the linux-kernel is not going to yield cheers either.
People that know the networking code intimately are presently "somewhat" busy, Be patient, repeat this topic at netdev list after about a week.

TCP Timestamps ? (Which Linux does use if the other end supports them too.)
Of course, what is "rate" ? Units of something per units of time ? Packets ? Payload bytes ? How does the size of payload data in the packets affect the "rate" ?
