in my tests I'm doing the following:
net.ipv4.tcp_adv_win_scale = 14
net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 4096 87380 X*2
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 4096 65536 X*2
net.core.rmem_max = X*2 + 10 * 2^20 # 10MB available over what i use
net.core.wmem_max = X*2 + 10 * 2^20 # same

I don't really understand what those 10 MB are.

on both the receiver and sender pc's.. doing this the cwnd at the
sender grows till X/RTT otherwise it is limited by the receiver

How is cwnd measured ?

Besides those settings, were there any tcp buffers set manually (via
setsockopt()) ?

Could you give me more details about the machines' configuration as
well as the underlying network ?
