Am I right in assuming that the sysctl value net.inet.tcp.slowstart_flightsize should never be set to zero ? If this value is zero the congestion window is reduced to 1 byte not one segment during slow start. Just wondering if a check should be added that sets the congestion window to one segment even if slowstart_flightsize = 0. jayanth To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
