1) Are you sure the value is the same as you used in JNOS. ?

I think you need to think again about what you just wrote, you are
experiencing "packet fragmentation" you say yourself its a busy qrg, now if
you recieve the first packet of the 2 which have been splitup by the remote
host, and you do not receive the second within x seconds then the first
packet will be discarded, that i think has a lot to do with "your" problem.
Futher more i cant agree about a small mss/mtu as i always used 256 MTU on a
1200 port, the qrg was busy, but busy or not 256 was proved to be beter for
all on the qrg, 1) less overhead more data, 2) less trx time consumed.
