Comment on Linux kernel 2.6.39 releasedparent

Comments

commit 442b9635, increasing the initial tcp window (initcwnd) to 10(segments), first landed somewhere around 2.6.39-rc2. I consider that a significant thing for servers. The initial receive window was increased first, several months ago. (I think the receive window change was in .37 but I don't know for sure.)
