In this problem we consider the delay introduced by the TCP
slow-start phase. Consider a
client and a Web server directly connected by one link of rate R/4.
Suppose the client
wants to retrieve an object whose size is exactly equal to 14S,
where S is the maximum
segment size (MSS). Denote the round-trip time between client and
server as RTT
(assume to be constant). Ignoring protocol headers, determine the
time to retrieve the
object (including TCP connection establishment) when 12 S/R >
RTT > 4 S/R and RTT
≥ 12 S/R, respectively.
