I would prefer to encapsulate it into its own not-so-much-congestion-management

your app anyways to do the sockopt call this seems a more complete solution to
me. At least better than to do a non-portable hack that violates one of the
most fundamental TCP concepts.
This is real rich from the guy pushing the increased IW that came from Linux. :)
IW10 came from Google and obviously was implemented in Linux first because that
is what they use. However, and this is the big difference, they also provided
significant real-world data on the effects of their changes. TCPM was very
skeptical at first but the data from the experiments has convinced many that it
is not harmful first and actually beneficial second.
"Tools not policy" yadda yadda, but I digress.
