Defining "under-utilised cwnd", seems conceptually the right thing, but we struggled with that term and the term "fully utilized the congestion window" when writing RFC7661, because ACKs can arrive in bursts and apps can do their work in bursts: Does that mean it's more than some threshold for some period time?
