This post is somewhat related to a previous post I made a while back:

reading it isn't entirely neccessary but it'll show how I came to asking this question and gives a little background into a real world problem I had a couple months back that I wasn't really able to solve.
So the question is, can extremely bad latency (say in the 2000ms range) hinder NAT? Under those conditions the serving computer would experience a greater speed than the clients?
I don't know too much about latency and it's effect on NAT. My impression is, if latency is bad on 1 computer, even if that computer shares it's connection, it shouldn't hinder the bandwidth of the share-ees too much (atleast not THAT much).
Really you should just be adding a little extra delay for that extra little hop between computers.
