> @@ -716,6 +717,9 @@ Pseudocode for OnAckReceived and UpdateRtt follow:
 
 ~~~
   OnAckReceived(ack):
+    largest_acked_packet = max(largest_acked_packet,

It's the case when one packet is far out of order, and then subsequent packets arrive in order.  ie: 100 is received, then 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.  I don't fully understand the cause, but I've seen small UDP packets jump ahead of large ones in a number of traces.

But I suspect Jana and I will merge this as is and we can add follow-up text about that issue if we think it's valuable.
