On a whim I wanted to find out, how often that overflow is triggered in
normal operation, and whipped up a quick counter-sysctl.

I booted my main (web/shell) box with (only) this patch:
11:36PM up 3:50, 1 user, load averages: 2.29, 1.51, 0.73
net.inet.tcp.adv_neg: 2466
That's approximately once every 5 seconds. That's way more often than I
suspected.

There's a knob called "brightness", but it doesn't seem to work.
