I want to enjoy the technical details of the Technet post on their own merits, but I can't help but add "to better support our telemetry needs" to the end of some of the phrases, like so:

"Like Windows TFO, IW10 mostly affects small object transfers over the Internet. Windows IW10 can transfer small Internet objects up to twice as quickly as ICW4 [to better support our telemetry needs]"

man this memes gotta stop. Everyone else does telemetry, why shouldn't Microsoft do it if it means making the product better for users?

Except IW10 is an implementation of RFC6928 and "small" transfers includes web pages https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6928
