Hi,

This mapping is statistical, this matters more if the multiplexing is low and a port change results in unbalance across quques/paths.

I agree this is mostly a concern for low-mux'ing cases when a single rehash can create significant imbalance. How common are such deployments, and how much of a problem is such a temporary imbalance (the CC will adjust quickly). Esp. compared to forcing slow-start after every NAT rebind.
