I have compared loose source route based IP packets and a normal IP
packets.

Stefan was right.
Loose source route based packets are slow and lossy. RTT of loose
source route based packets are scatterd. It seems that loose source
route based packets was hugely influenced by intermediate route's
condition.

I would like to show the correlation between LSR-based packets and RTT
of normal in terms of RTT and loss rate. But it seems to be difficult.

There are some graphs.

Comments are welcome.
Thanks.
