 Well is was not the intention to find any optimum or equilibrium point
 the idea was just to get a different and more agressive setting pure DoS 
 attacks to start with. 

 Something like:

 if (in_hit < in_slow_tot) 
        ip_rt_gc_elasticity2 = 1;
 else 
         ip_rt_gc_elasticity2 = 2*ip_rt_gc_elasticity;

 would have been cleaner but maybe it's not worth it.


 Cheers.
