|  Questions on the graphs:
|  - are these direct connect nodes?
The nodes are on the same Ethernet LAN, connected via 100Mbps / 1GBps interfaces. There is no
other traffic on that LAN.
|  - why is Xcalc 0?
Since no losses occurred (p is always 0 on these tests).
|  - why on the stable one is Xrecv different from X. Is X the rate that
|  it is allowed to send at but doesn't so only achieves Xrecv?
When there is no loss, X = max(min(2*X, 2*X_recv), s/R) - the graph agrees with this, since
X is about 2*X_recv.
