How we built a new, fast file transfer protocol

Anything that causes packet loss will slow down TCP. If you are fully saturating a link you will introduce packet loss. It's just how TCP works.

And if you are fully saturating exactly the packet slots TCP would not try to use, then you are not introducing packet loss. That is just how FASP works.

there is just no way for end-points to know about the 'unused slots' much less use them specifically (w/o introducing packet loss or latency).
