Yow, that's a weird trace.  I was just going to suggest that you
increase the socket buffer size, but that was before I saw the
retransmissions and other stuff in the trace.  Could you make a
trace that shows the three way handshake when the connection starts up,
so we can see the window scaling that gets set up?

(And, it'd be interesting to see what happens if you increase the socket
buffer size.)
