The "transmit burst" issue will happen in either case. But you will notice that in both cases, I am in favor of reducing the number of packets on the wire. Packets not send can't interfere with other traffic. If ACK packets are delayed to the point that additional ACK packets have caught up with them, they are not providing the rate signalling signal that you are looking for. Question: Does anyone know if current server TCP stacks implement the TCP byte counting that RFC3449 talks about? David Lang
