Mbps, all of a sudden transmission rates drop to nothing then pickup again afte r 15-20 seconds. Prior to the drop off (based on packet capture) there is usuall y a DUP ACK/SACK coming from the receiver followed by the Retransmits and conges tion avoidence. What is strange is there is nothing prior to the drop off that w ould be an impetus for congestion (no high BW utilization or packet loss).
P1? Mainly are there issues regarding the handling of SACK, DUP ACK's and Fast R etransmits. ke flawless socket code, but if it is network issue how is caused?
