questions
[edit]How does FAST TCP work? And, what is the problem with traditional tcp?
What are comparisons to speed/capability differences between traditional tcp and fast tcp?
How was fast tcp tested? and are the results applicable to the networks we use on a daily basis?
who owns FAST TCP and how is it being deployed?
If anyone could help me that'd be great! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.170.88.9 (talk • contribs) 29 November 2004
one path
[edit]The article states: "Traditional TCP limits itself to only one path.". Is that really true? It surprised me, but i don't really have time to research it now... --Raboof 14:35, 16 Apr 2005 (UTC)
FAST TCP and modem/DSL: Apples and oranges
[edit]`FAST TCP uses 10 parallel routes and can transfer up to 8,609 Megabits per second. This is 153,000 times faster than the average modem and 6,000 times faster than an ordinary DSL line.'
- This is a nonsensical comparision for obvious reasons. I think it should be removed.--Raboof 12:11, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- I strongly agree. To compare a transport layer protocol with a subnet protocol like modem or DSL is complete nonsense. It is like stating that an UPS-Express-Packet is much faster than a bicycle - Chris
