This patch does the following: 1. eliminates the fast/slow timeout lists for TCP and instead uses a callout entry for each timer. 2. Increases the TCP timer granularity to 10ms 3. Implements "bad retransmit" recovery, as presented in "On Estimating End-to-End Network Path Properties", by Allman and Paxson. It has been used for a while in various places, and I'd like to invite more comments before committing it to -current. The patches are at http://www.freebsd.org/~jlemon. Be sure to read the notes at the top of the patch as well. -- Jonathan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
