[Iccrg] Best congestion avoidance algorithm

[Alejandro Cabrera Obed]

Dear all, I have a network scenario with several Windows XP and Linux
Debian Etch boxes acting as servers and clients, using typical TCP
traffic like FTP, HTTP, SSH -among others-.

Our boxes mainly have TCP Reno as the TCP congestion avoidance
algorithm. But we see that TCP Vegas has a better response to
congestion because it uses round-trip time measure to control the
transfer rate, opposite to Reno that uses packet loss. And we see
there are other congestion avoidance algorithm like New Reno, Bic,
Cubic, etc.

So, what is the best congestion avoidance algorithm nowadays taking
into account the response time to congestion situations ??? What do
you recommend to me ???

Special thanks
