The question was, do you see this as a problem of the new rwnd algorithm?
If yes, how exactly? The algorithm actually has no preference to any amount of data.
It was fine-tuned before to serve as congestion control algorithm, but this should
be located elsewhere. Perhaps, indeed, a re-use of congestion control modules from
TCP would be possible...
Its also worth to note that sctp specifies rfc2581 for congestion
control. TCP obsoleted that one in favor of 5681.
@Vlad, after Alexanders comment, it seems to be that you were referring
to performance penalty. At first, I understood you refer to some penalty
in rwnd calculation against buffer/rwnd value/something else. Thats why
I asked that.
What also might be is that we are hitting SWS. I remember us observing
some scenarios in which SWS is broken, new rwnd might have triggered it
fully.
In any case, after some thought in the meantime, I'm pretty much sure
that we need to improve congestion control and that new rwnd calculation
is correct approach.

The base approach is sound. The idea is to calculate rwnd based
on receiver buffer available. The algorithm chosen however, is
gives a much higher preference to small data and penalizes large
data transfers. We need to figure our something else here..
I don't follow you here. Could you please explain what do you see as penalty?
Thanks,
