The original question was "why does this happen for openvpn over TCP and
not for openvpn over UDP?" - well, basically, "over TCP" adds a new "link"
that can get congested (queues in TCP)...
But not everyone is well-versed in buffers, queueing, and latency :-)
(and then, there are different schools of buffering - "large buffers
with smart queueing" vs. "shallow buffers, drop early, leave this to
the upper layer protocol to sort out")
