Microsoft to improve its networking
 

Software King of the World Microsoft is about to tweak the TCP stack on its Windows 10 Anniversary update and Windows Server 2016 including some torrenting technology.

The tech involves using TCP Fast Open (TFO) for zero RTT TCP connection setup. IETF RFC 7413, Initial Congestion Window 10 (ICW10) by default for faster TCP slow start, TCP Recent ACKnowledgment (RACK) for better loss recovery (experimental IETF draft), Tail Loss Probe (TLP) for better Retransmit TimeOut response (experimental IETF draft) and TCP LEDBAT for background connections IETF RFC 6817
