We have several people who report that tcp.newreno seriously hurts their
network performance and Yan doesn't seem to have time to fix it.
Unless there are compelling reasons to not do so presented in the next
72 hours I will change the kernel default from newreno enabled to
newreno disabled.
Anybody interested in studying the problem can find two packet
