[Bug 567394] Re: TCP stack bug related to F-RTO

[Kees Cook]

When I read this earlier, it seemed like just a performance issue.  On
closer inspection, this will cause the server to potentially get to a
giant retransmit timeout that the client can ignore?  I.e. client will
ack at every doubling of the server's timeout, keeping those sockets
alive?  Do you have a way to test this that you can share?
