All those duplicate ACKs look like a problme to me... I would be inclined to 
capture from the other end or from a monitor port on the switch to make sure 
those are actually hitting the wire.  The only explination I can think of is 
that the system sending the duplicate ACKs is assuming that it's lost a segment 
for some reason and is trying to trigger fast recovery early.

one retransmit per five packets). Is this what you're seeing? If you have a capture you could share covering a few seconds, I could take a look and provide a better opinion.

Thanks for your help, here's a small snippet of the iperf session. There are hundreds od duplicate ACKs. I'm not sure how to understand that. Like mentioned, I have to refresh some TCP basics before I can do usefull tests. But perhaps you can confirm that this behaviour is intendend, or where the problem could be...

Thanks,
