Well, from this trace it's clear that packet loss is occuring; the 1
second delays are retransmit timeouts, nothing unexpected there.  As far
as I can tell from looking at the trace, the problem is not a fault in
FreeBSD's tcp stack, but rather something hardware related.  I'd suggest
changing network cards on host A to see if that makes a difference.
