kernel version & MTU and configuration from my receiver & sender is attached to this e-mail, please be aware that EC2 is doing MSS clamping so you need to configure MTU as 1500 on the sender side if you don’t have any MSS clamping between sender & receiver.
Thank you.

Thanks for testing this, Eric. Would you be able to share the MTU
config commands you used, and the tcpdump traces you get? I'm
surprised that receive buffer autotuning would work for advmss of
around 6500 or higher.
