* Minimum retransmit timer is 3 ticks, for algorithmic stability.
- * The maximum is 64 seconds. The prior minimum of 1*hz (1 second) badly
- * breaks throughput on any networks faster then a modem that has minor
- * (e.g. 1%) packet loss.
+ * TCPT_RANGESET() will add another TCPTV_CPU_VAR to deal with
+ * the expected worst-case processing variances by the kernels
+ * representing the end points. Such variances do not always show
+ * up in the srtt because the timestamp is often calculated at
+ * the interface rather then at the TCP layer. This value is
+ * typically 50ms. However, it is also possible that delayed
+ * acks (typically 100ms) could create issues so we set the slop
+ * to 200ms to try to cover it. Note that, properly speaking,
+ * delayed-acks should not create a major issue for interactive
+ * environments which 'P'ush the last segment, at least as
+ * long as implementations do the required 'at least one ack
+ * for every two packets' for the non-interactive streaming case.
+ * (maybe the RTO calculation should use 2*RTT instead of RTT
+ * to handle the ack-every-other-packet case).
