RE: [RPRWG] Frame reordering for medium priority traffic in Ganda lf?
Sorry, but I'm still confused. How can reordering out-of-profile TCP traffic make things worse? Either it triggers fast retransmit/fast recovery, so the sending station slows down its sending rate, or it doesn't trigger fast retransmit/fast recovery, so there is no effect.

First, this is not a single station that we're talking about here.
Second, the out-of-profile traffic was admitted because the
network thought it could deliver it. Reordering the traffic might
actually make things worse. It's like getting a freebie that might
make your life worse without telling you about it.
