A straight initial window of 4 is too big. I have patches lying around
that varies the initial window size from 2 to 4 depending on the MSS,
as specified in the RFC.

Hi,
/sys/netinet/in.h contains a huge macro, CTL_IPPROTO_NAMES, which
maps to an array containing protocol names.
As far as i can tell (find /usr/src | xargs grep CTL_IPPROTO_NAMES)
it is not used anywhere in the source tree.
Any objection to nuke it ?

Hi,
Just curious on one thing, we know that SYN packet can
carry data payload, but I never see any implementation
that actually does this. Nor have I seen code that
checks or handles this in receive function. Is there a
reason NOT doing so ?
Thanks

Try retrieving a very large file via ftp. The sendfile() code seems
more efficient than ttcp, and if performance improves that may be
a clue that the problem lies in the user/kernel interface. If not,
probably in the stack. Could it conceivably be a resonance effect
between the actual rtt and th

Are you sure you're not hitting the top of the pipe and bouncing
around in congestion avoidance ? Unless your window size limits
your bw at exactly the correct amount, you'll never get the steady state
bw you want.

No SACK in 4.1. But, there is no loss in th connection.

Your suggestion of increasing the -l seems to have made a positive

Perhaps

will help?
you may wish to also change tcp.inflight_max.
See tcp(4) as of 4.7.
