Good news everyone: Two connections made it to the finish line.

The bad part: One transfer took four minutes, the other sixteen minutes.
A colleague commented it's still much faster than carrying the message
by plane ;-) A session without FRTO takes around 84 seconds.

I've added debug printks() to every return path in tcp_use_frto(),
so you can see what's going on. They look like this:

Jul 18 10:20:40 intratest131 kernel: [  957.318006] tcp_use_frto: ENTER: frto_counter: 0, icsk->icsk_ca_state: 0
Jul 18 10:20:40 intratest131 kernel: [  957.318011] tcp_use_frto: DEFAULT RETURN 1;
Jul 18 10:21:08 intratest131 kernel: [  984.446006] tcp_use_frto: ENTER: frto_counter: 3, icsk->icsk_ca_state: 0
Jul 18 10:21:08 intratest131 kernel: [  984.446011] tcp_use_frto: RETURN in "tp->frto_counter > 1 || icsk->icsk_ca_state == TCP_CA_Loss"
Jul 18 10:21:14 intratest131 kernel: [  991.058006] tcp_use_frto: ENTER: frto_counter: 0, icsk->icsk_ca_state: 0
Jul 18 10:21:14 intratest131 kernel: [  991.058011] tcp_use_frto: DEFAULT RETURN 1;

Here are two new dumps and the corresponding debug traces:

Enjoy,
