Ok that's enough for now, but much more is on the way. Please let me

Hi,

My question isn't very constructive but I'd like to know more about this topic. Have you seen this:

http://developers.slashdot.org/story/10/11/26/1729218/Google-Microsoft-Cheat-On-Slow-Start-mdash-Should-You

? In short: is the existance of slow-start a property of (New)Reno and will some of the new algorithms make it less "cautious", i.e. faster? I don't think it's critical but I'm often noticing it, especially on bulk transfers over LAN.
