I think the usefulness of KeepAlives varies directly with the proportion
of your clients that are on slow connections. If this is a LAN situation,
I'd be inclined to disable KeepAlives entirely. If it's a more
heterogenous environment, I'm not sure I can give you any canonical
figures -- if you can setup a benchmarking environment in which you
have multiple clients using different connection speeds (perhaps
simulated), that would probably give you the best data.
Cheers,
Neil
