Hi All,

Some more data on this, I've reproduced this on another host that's a 
completely stock centos/xen deployment with a centos 6.6 domU.

Since I’m seeing the retransmissions on the VIF, I don't think it's related to 
the network stack but just in case.. Each host is connected via LACP with vlan 
tagging to a pair of stacked cisco 3750's. Host networking config is here:

The vm is on br99 here.

This is easily reproducable by just generating a 250mb random file and doing an 
scp, while watching with tshark: 

tshark -R "tcp.analysis.retransmission"

There's no visible impact to the connection the vast majority of the time, 
which is why I think this has gone unnoticed.

Just to confirm this wasn't related to hardware / nics, I've reproduced this on:

 - Dell PowerEdge M620 with broadcom nics
 - Dell C6220 with intel nics
 - Supermicro X8DTT with intel nics

Any ideas? =)
