cwin During Congestion Avoidance

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,
	I have a question to anyone who is familiar with the Linux
congestion avoidance implementation.  RFC 2001 states that during
congestion avoidance, the congestion window should be incremented by
segsize*segsize/cwnd each time an ACK is received.
Is this what Linux 2.2 is doing? My observations of some traces show that
it is actually being increased at a rate of 
	(segsize*segsize/cwnd) / 2
for each ACK (ie. once per every other RTT as opposed to once a RTT).


thanks,
Martin
