Subject: [nwcrg] the question I had on LT-TCP

Hi,

the question I was asking about LT-TCP was: If you ran TCP in a way that reacted to ECN by reducing the window, but not do that when detecting a loss, what would the performance be?

In other words, I'm wondering how much of the performance improvement you're seeing is due to the use of coding in LT-TCP, and how much is due to not backing off like TCP does.

Thanks,
Lars
