Dino, 'iperf3' proves that applications can sometimes get better performance by 
using
packet sizes larger than the path MTU even though IP fragmentation is invoked.

In loss-less networks. And what about firewalls, that forward packets they 
should be filtering because fragment 0 transport info is not available?

Also, "adaptation layer" is not a new term; it is a very old term introduced by 
AAL5
and possibly earlier than that.

That wouldn't be a marketing strategy I would use, LOL.

Marketing strategy would probably accept new features in "Adaptation Layers v2."

A new feature in an ALv2 would be that instead of just a frag-reassembly from sender to receiver, one would consider group-degroup of packets too, to reduce overhead. If this too is not already there in ALs.
