(In 2.6.14 and 2.4.27 things run very fast) No, window size hasn't changed, but how we account for it has. Appropriate Byte Count changes what constitutes a packet for increasing the congestion window. Without ABC, the congestion window is increased by one after each successful acknowledge during slow start. With ABC, we don't increase the congestion window until after you get an acknowledgement for the number of bytes in a full TCP packet. This means if you send small packets, the window will increase more slowly, read the RFC. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
