Just because there wasn't any congestion reason that *you* could see where you
hat your instrumentation doesn't mean there's 100% congestion free end-to-end.
(Feel free to hit delete if you actually *do* have instrumentation looking
both directions on every segment involved).

Who knows, maybe a few packets got corrupted on the wire, and the TCP chucksum
actually caught it and dropped the offending packets.
