+ Minimal number of segments per TSO frame.
+ Since linux-3.12, TCP does an automatic sizing of TSO frames,
+ depending on flow rate, instead of filling 64Kbytes packets.
+ For specific usages, it's possible to force TCP to build big

This allows control over what percentage of the congestion window
can be consumed by a single TSO frame.

typical pfifo_fast qdiscs.
tcp_limit_output_bytes limits the number of bytes on qdisc
or device to reduce artificial RTT/cwnd and reduce bufferbloat.
