251tcp_moderate_rcvbuf - BOOLEAN
252 If set, TCP performs receive buffer autotuning, attempting to
253 automatically size the buffer (no greater than tcp_rmem[2]) to
254 match the size required by the path for full throughput. Enabled by
255 default.

257tcp_mtu_probing - INTEGER
258 Controls TCP Packetization-Layer Path MTU Discovery. Takes three
259 values:

264tcp_no_metrics_save - BOOLEAN
265 By default, TCP saves various connection metrics in the route cache
266 when the connection closes, so that connections established in the
267 near future can use these to set initial conditions. Usually, this
268 increases overall performance, but may sometimes cause performance
269 degredation. If set, TCP will not cache metrics on closing
270 connections.
