Slice being unrelated to placement makes its use in a placement related
knob look wrong. Even the smallest possible slice is orders of
magnitude larger than the cycle time of TCP_RR, making slice nearly
irrelevant to the issue being demonstrating via TCP_RR. Even for that
huge socket box, it won't take long as cycle time increases toward that
smallest possible slice for the cost of needless wait to bury placement
decision costs.

Sure, this is an age old issue that's scaled up to size extra ugly in
that huge socket box. Any solution needs to scale as well methinks, a
simple fixed yardstick won't work, as the costs being mitigated vary
wildly with platform size/shape.
