Indeed I overlooked the parantheses, and I'm extremely sorry for wasting your time with this. > (Given that X is the transmit rate in bytes per second, I don't > see why the factor of 8 is ok. But it does use t_RTO = 4 RTT.) oh, I was wrong when I looked at this at first - the real reason for the factor of 8 is that in the TFMCC spec, X is in bits/second. So everything's fine and I was just confused, sorry again. Cheers, Michael
