If you send a 100 ACKs you won't get this behavior. Once you give more ACKs than the other end has packets to send (or more than the congestion window can fit) the sender just waits for a timer based timeout before it retransmits more data. So what you code causes to happen is after the first data segment is sent, you crazily spit out 100 ACKs, the send has a tiny congestion window (now 2 segments) so at most it can send 2 packets back in response to all of those ACKs. - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
