Apple's iOS update got you poking around? Our Akamai farm's traffic spiked
by ~ 2.5 Gb/s (more than doubled) at release time, and it's still way up
there.

Back to your question though, supposing one of those (roughly 350) server
farms is chosen by Akamai DNS-foo to serve us content, I don't see why TR/CPS
would be a bad choice for pushing ACK's, regardless of which path the bulk
data takes.
