[Bloat] splat start?

[Bloat] splat start?

[Dave Taht]

One of the things bugging me lately is that we actually have a lot of
forms of "slow start"
on the table - HyStart, Initial Spreading, reno vs cubic, dctcp, IW2,
IW4, IW10, TSO offloads, the effect of GRO on it, etc. I dont know
what is in QUIC, either.

I would love a comprehensive guide to exactly the behaviors of "slow
start" in every tcp known to man and some sane way to refer to them
all in a cross reference and a spreadsheet.

Does something like that exist? Just the "* start" behavior.

The world has spent way too much time analyzing congestion avoidance mode.

Am I the only person that works in spreadsheets to model stuff? :(

Thank you. I did not know that work had also fed back into RFC6928.

thesis here. But I will need a spare weekend to read it.
