title: How to hack into the Unix Kernel to remove the Exponential Backoff from TCP?
body: <p>I came up with the idea that if we remove the exponential backoff time from TCP, this will improve the performance of the TCP throughput. I came across a paper also, which said how to do it. Just google "remove tcp exponential back off time" and you will get it. But, I am not able to understand how to get into the UNIX kernel and hack it inorder to change the TCP functioning. Please, if anyone can help me out then it would be simply great.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
