“…In the case of long delay paths, a slow upstream link [RFC3150] can lead to another complication when the end host uses TCP large windows [RFC1323] to maximize throughput in the forward direction. Loss of data packets on the forward path, due to congestion, or link loss, common for some wireless links, will generate a large number of back-to-back duplicate ACKs (or TCP SACK packets [RFC2018]), for each correctly received data packet following a loss.…”

“…In the form described in [RFC1144], TCP performance is degraded when used over links (or paths) that may exhibit appreciable rates of packet loss [RFC3150]. It may also not provide significant improvement for upstream links with bidirectional traffic.…”
