Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU):
Wait ! Stop right there !
Oops - too late - there are already more emails in this thread :-(
MTU is the maximum size of an individual packet - it has no (direct)
relationship to the TCP window.
There are subtle interactions between them - but they really are second-
or third-order effects. It's best to treat them as though they were
completely independent. So I'll leave this as the only thing to say
about MTU and give a separate answer about TCP's windowing strategy.
