So supportive of the general function. However, my question is if it is in bytes, how does that interact with path MTU discovery. If on starts at the default 1280 bytes PMTU and one actually have a 4K path MTU network. Then something that was configured for 10 packets will suddenly end up acking every 3-4 packets.
