Cache Line optimization for cpu

• https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20231129072756.3684495-1-lixiaoyan@google.com/
• Up to 45% CPU performance increase by aligning cache lines

TCP Congestion Control

• slow start - begins transmission with a small congestion window and exponetnially increases it until a threshold is reached or packet loss is detected
• congestion avoidance - once a threshold is reached, TCP increases the congestion window linearly to probe for additional bandwidth
• fast retransmist and fast recovery - if packet loss is detected via duplicate acks, then it performs a fast retransmit
• Sequence number wrapping - TCP must handle the sequence number wrapping around

Nagle’s Algorithm

• 40ms delay in TCP
• Basically a buffer
• Note that TCP defaults haven’t really changed!
• Set TCP_NODELAY to prevent it
