We moved an application stack from BSD4(BOO!) to BSD7(YAY!) recently and
got a great performance increase, so first:  GOOD JOB.

Periodically, we are seeing strings of duplicate ACK being sent in
<100uSec deltas.  I can't imagine that this should be happening, but
there it is.  I've sanitized an example trace of a transaction,
demonstrating an average case that had 8 dup ACKs, some less than 3
microsends in delta!  sysctl -a also attached (and sanitized).
