At 100%, the LNS throttles you to exactly your line's capacity. At 110%, it will let through 110% of your line capacity, and allow the wholesaler's systems to buffer/drop the excess. At 95%, it lets through 95% of the line's capacity, so it will be unaffected by the wholesaler's buffering. Setting to less than 100% is advised for lines running VoIP and other real-time services as it means the downlink won't be filled. Lowering the rate from 100% to 95% will mean that there should be no network buffering within the wholesalers network - and may well reduce latency when downloading at the full rate of the line.
