[not cc:ed to dccp@ietf]

There are some interesting points here, but please consider the other message
also. From an implementation point of view and in the current absence of a
normative or majority-supported view on how to deal with accumulation of send
credits which do in fact arise, I think it is safer and better to for the moment
stick with the default of one t_ipi as maximum current credit.

Quoting Ian McDonald:

This sounds to me like the oscillation prevention mechanism from RFC 3448, which 
is expressly meant for networks with low statistical multiplexing (e.g. LANs). 

I have it in the pipeline but didn't want to submit until the present patches are
through, since it requires to change the computation of X, for which I would like
to have a review and decision first.
