+tcp_no_metrics_save - BOOLEAN
+	By default, TCP saves various connection metrics in the route cache
+	when the connection closes, so that connections established in the
+	near future can use these to set initial conditions.  Usually, this
+	increases overall performance, but may sometimes cause performance
