"Selective Acknowledgement", it allows a host/router to explicitly
acknowledge TCP segments and retransmit them, such that if a
segment gets lost, it can be retransmitted from the last hop
instead of the connection endpoint, which would result in a much
larger delay. Especially if you have wireless links, SACK
can be a huge improvement.

Please correct/elaborate, I'm not sure if I got that entirely
right, except for the idea. ;-)

Best regards,
 Daniel
