While we've never been able to really reproduce this ourselves, we did change the output queue throttling code in SVN to be much more aggressive, i.e. reduce the default rate of data being sent out significantly. This happened a while ago.

Unfortunately, clamping the rate means greater latency for interesting data (such as messages) in some situations, particularly on connect, when auto-join causes various messages to be put in the queue. That's an unwelcome regression, and requires smarter code that can schedule different types of traffic to be handled with different priority, and sent out at different rates.

Eli MacKenzie (argonel) is presently working on implementing this new output queue scheduler, i.e. the next release will feature much more aggressive flood protection for outgoing traffic at a relatively small cost.
