> This patch fixes a bug in tcp_vegas.c.  At the moment this code leaves ssthresh untouched.  However, this means that the vegas congestion control algorithm is effectively unable to reduce cwnd below the ssthresh value (if the vegas update lowers the cwnd below ssthresh, then slow start is activated to raise it back up).   One example where this matters is when during slow start cwnd overshoots the link capacity and a flow then exits slow start with ssthresh set to a value above where congestion avoidance would like to adjust it.

Nevermind, I see that you used an attachment, so I
applied this, but:

You really need to -p1 root your patches.
