!net.ipv4.tcp_fack
Enable __F__orward __Ack__nowledgement congestion avoidance and fast retransmission. The value is not used, if net.ipv4.tcp_sack is not enabled. See http://www.psc.edu/networking/papers/fack_abstract.html for details on how this option works. Basically it seems to assume that missing sequence ranges are dropped (ie, implies no reordering). Linux will disable fack on a per connection basis if it detects reordering.
