Hi,

Jerry Chu has recently started the discussion on whether we need to think about tweaking TCP for the "modern Internet." Just came across another presentation from (AFAICT) another corner of Google that makes similar arguments.

FYI: http://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/spdy/An_Argument_For_Changing_TCP_Slow_Start.pdf

This topic seems to be gaining momentum, and the WG should take some time considering if there is work here for it.

Lars
