Hi Ricardo,

Thank you for the patch.

Do you think this improves readability ? I find the existing code easier
to read, its purpose is immediately clear: it computes npackets and
clamps it to a max value. With min() I have to pause and think.

I'll take patches 1/3 and 2/3 in my tree already as 1/3 fixes an issue.
