I modified ppp to round robin across the flows and it does improve interactive peformance on a modem link while multiple flows are active. My intention was to make it true fair queuing but I got side tracked with other projects. An MTU somewhat less than 1500 helps too. http://www.irbs.com/FreeBSD/ip.c This is a fairly old ip.c but it should drop into modern ppp without too much trouble..
