Comment (by Vort):

 > Tested NAT-ed guest Win7 with "BwTest.3.exe -c ip_of_local_host -u"

 There may be lot of reasons why localhost tests will give incorrect
 results.

 For example:
 > Tested with latency 1, 5, 10, it wants 2M (probably depends maximum size
 of system memory) always.

 I've made a test with real Win7<->Win7 100 Mbit/s WiFi link (pings ranging
 from 1ms to 100ms and higher, but, usually they are in range from 1ms to
 10ms).
 And `BwTest -c ip -u -t` did not raised ISB beyond 65536.
