Comment (by robgjansen):

 Replying to [comment:6 dgoulet]:
 > Having congestion control in user space is '''difficult''' vis-a-vis
 performance. For once, you have to do extra syscalls for every I/O
 operation but it's also a "play the guessing max size game" which is
 tightly controlled by the kernel.

 Hmmm. Yeah.

 Relatedly, do you know if TCP auto-tuning in the kernel is disabled when
 the buffer size is explicitly set with `setsockopt`? If not, do you know a
 socket option  to disable TCP auto-tuning for a given socket?
