Hi I'm trying to understand one behaviour of TCP I cannot explain analyzing some traces, I find that when there is a fast-retransmit and during that period the receive window is filled, when the sender receives a window update and resumes the sending activity, it resumes using slow start, or that is what it looks like: http://sites.google.com/site/despista000/index-html (tcptrace plot) does my description matches the behaviour shown in the plot? comments appreciated Thanks
