While you're running an environment or just when it's sitting there? If 
the first, that seems kinda normal (though 40k/sec is somewhat 
excessive; are you sure it's that much?) but unless you're running a 
Croquet environment there shouldn't be any network traffic.

I'm not sure what your point is. Having looked at them quite carefully 
my only observation is that one uses a cascade and the other one 
doesn't. Is there a problem with one of them? Other than that it's three 
lines of duplicated code which may be unfortunate but I'm sure there is 
worse code in the system ;)
