Well I suspect packets arriving at the TAP-Win32 device are not
buffered, and if tinc doesn't read a waiting packet soon enough, any
other packet that arrives gets dropped. If tinc runs with a higher
priority, it has a better chance of reading packets in time.

On the other hand, I installed tinc on several Windows machines, and
while it's not lightning fast, it performed reasonably well. Martin's
problem might have a different cause. But I wouldn't know what.
