[R-C] Question about the problem with TFRC

[Luca De Cicco]

Dear Colin,

we also worked on issues related to Saurin's thesis which can be found
in a IEEE ICNP publication:

L. De Cicco, S. Mascolo
A Mismatch Controller for Implementing High-Speed Rate-based Transport Protocols
in Proc of 17th IEEE International Conference on Network Protocols
(ICNP '09), Princeton, NJ, USA , Oct. 13-16, 2009

Cheers,
Luca

So I'm not making a proposal here, just asking a question out of academic curiosity: is this just handwaving and assumptions, or have some people given it a try and found that it doesn't work well? Are there any documented results showing that?
