FWIW, I think you may be interested in this discussion:

In a nutshell, static record size introduces an inherent tradeoff between latency and throughput -- smaller records are good for latency, but hurt server throughput by adding bytes and CPU overhead. It would be great if we could implement a smarter strategy in ATS. The extra benefit is that it's one less knob to tune: the out-of-the-box experience would be better optimized for all ATS users, regardless of mix/type of traffic being proxies.
