From this log I can see that the protocol is entering Fast Retransmit many times
and this happens due to reordering or small losses (the latter option is more
realistic on a single hop network - but is it really one hop? I never asked).

The other strange thing I see is the final SRTT value which is 260ms and looks
pretty high. Is there anything else going on the network (other traffic or..)?


Cheers,
