Different packet sizes

During today's discussion, we saw the scenario where one end-systems sends to another two files of sizes L and 0.1L. There was the question of what happens if the packets are sent in the opposite order, i.e., the smaller one first. Indeed, the end-to-end transfer time is different. I am attaching a timing diagram that shows the answer.
