Re: [quicwg/base-drafts] Use a higher seed RTT for new paths (#2789)

[ianswett <[e-mail]>]

I believe the relevant text is(?):
" (5.7) If the timer expires awaiting the ACK of a SYN segment and the
         TCP implementation is using an RTO less than 3 seconds, the RTO
         MUST be re-initialized to 3 seconds when data transmission
         begins (i.e., after the three-way handshake completes)."

I believe that's saying the RTO should be set to 3 seconds if any syn timers expired?  Do implementations(ie: Linux, Windows, etc) do that?  If so, that means a single packet loss in the handshake causes the RTO to increase to 3 seconds, but a subsequent data packet loss would not have that effect?

@gorryfair  If you're in Montreal Saturday or Sunday at the Hackathon, maybe we can talk about this more and figure out what to do here?
