This can cause overshooting if the other side doesn't do delayed acking, 
did anyone consider the ABC (Appropriate Byte Counting) patch from 
Yee-Ting Li? 
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=110917262615630&w=2

FreeBSD has an option to disable delayed acking so it's not that hard to 
work against a host with no delayed acks at all.
