the most impacting change is in tcp_usrreq.c
----------------------------
revision 1.51.2.10
date: 2001/11/30 19:54:05;  author: alfred;  state: Exp;  lines: +3 -3
MFC: 1.64 (larger default tcp send/recieve buffers)
----------------------------

It seems that the switch and/or the USB/ethernet adaptor is overrun
by the larger sendspace. So setting sysctl net.inet.tcp.xxxspace=16384
on the USB/ethernet system solves the problem mostly.
