from what i've found, and without knowing which specific regedit you ran, its most
likely a modification of
the RWIN.

--snip--
Windows 98 has some improvements in the TCP/IP, including Large Window support ( the
                     'DefaultRcvWindow' has a maximum value of 2**30 rather than 64K),
support for Selective
                     Acknowledgments (SACK) and support for Fast Retransmission and
Fast Recovery.
--snip--

However, I don't know where this is managed in fbsd.  thought maybe some clarification
might help find some folks more knowledgeable.
so basically, maybe the question should be more like:

how do you tweak TCP under freebsd?
