Oh, I forgot to mention... there's still a bug. You have to turn off
delayed acks to get the below numbers. Otherwise the window 0 recovery
ack ... gets delayed. Joy. It's easy to fix, but I'm off to see
Potter so it will be tonight.

: This is WITHOUT changing the default send and receive tcp buffers..
: they're both 16384.

: The bug I found is that when recv() is used with MSG_WAITALL,
: which is what tbench does, soreceive() will block waiting for all
: available input WITHOUT ever calling pr->pr_usrreqs->pru_rcvd(),
: which means that if the sender filled up the receive buffer (16K default)
: the receiver will never ack the 0 window... that is until the idle code
: takes over after 5 seconds.
