In the TCP Compound article used as a reference for the implementation, we read:
"If a retransmission timeout occurs, dwnd should be reset to zero and
the delay-based component is disabled." at page 5 of

The attached patch implements this req
The existing code did a 64 bit divide directly, which won't work on
32 bit platforms. This is what I am testing, it uses math similar to
TCP CUBIC to do a quad root. It seemed more efficient to just do
one operation rather than two square roots.

TCP Compound is a sender-side only change to TCP that uses
a mixed Reno/Vegas approach to calculate the cwnd.
