ahh, if only this were true.

I still get them. i am connected to an ISP who is using Ascend
equipment, which someone a few months ago claimed is responsible for
some of the stalls and poor download rates.

2.1.23 hasnt affected this problem at all.

any good pointers to docs showing how to use tcpdump to diagnose these
problems?

p.s. at least the poor swap behavior is all better now.
