The presentation was well received but there were questions about the apparently high failure rates of FTS (20%)." In the e2e meeting I commented that this is very high as a file succeeds in transferring once, but due to retries fails lots of times. Another interesting statistic is therefore % of files (not transfers) that fail first time, and either % that work after retries, or % of failures that eventually work. IYSWIM Chris
