   Hmm. One of these weird bandwidth limiters again?

In a more recent mail, TCP header compression in Win98 or Earthlink's
terminal servers have become the current prime suspect. :-)

   The RTT is lower than 2.2's initial 3s RTT, so 2.2 would never see
   it.

The 240 traces are using an RTT of 3s (look at the time difference of
the first retransmit), so this is not it.

Later,
