Subject: [Cerowrt-devel] Infoworld: Google thoughts about speeding up internet

Infoworld has an article that points to a Google Blog that has a few suggestions for speeding up TCP connections.

Google Blog: http://googlecode.blogspot.com/2012/01/lets-make-tcp-faster.html#comment-form
It seems that these suggestions (which include increasing initial congestion window to 10 packets, and decreasing initial timeout to one second) would make bufferbloat worse in the outbound direction.
I am somewhat relieved that there are a couple comments to this effect in the blog page above. I don't know if the author understands the bufferbloat problem fully, though.
