[ntp:questions] Is a doubling of I/O bytes expected for NTP over Wi-Fi?

.. and I just tried sending one of the Raspberry Pi cards a 1,000,000 
byte file, with the following results:

In: 1126460500
In: 1125320238

Delta: 1140262

Out: 1770263782
Out: 1770185734

Delta: 78048

So it took about 14% more bytes to receive the file, with about 7% 
return bytes for acknowledgements or requests.  There was a small amount 
of other traffic going on at the same time.  MRTG showed a delta of just 
over 3 KB/s, which is 1 MB / 5 minutes.

Doesn't appear that network interface byte count reporting errors are to 
blame....
