From: Alice Mikityanska <[email protected]>

The combination of checksum offload disabled (that causes software GSO)
and CONFIG_DEBUG_NET=y is inherently slow. Depending on the CPU power
and load, RTT may increase, limiting sk_pacing_rate, so tcp_tso_autosize
caps SKBs at around 40 segments, and zero BIG TCP packets are produced.

Increase sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_min_tso_segs and set a bigger initial value
of CWND in these configurations to force BIG TCP.
