Congratulations!  But I wonder why the throughput of FreeBSD=>Linux
was almost equal to that of Linux=>FreeBSD.  If the settings above
improves the throughput of FreeBSD=>FreeBSD, the throughput of
FreeBSD=>Linux would also be improved with them.  Is it improved?

In my understanding, it tries to estimate bandwidth-delay product and
tries to avoid injecting too much data segments into networks.
So, if it underestimates bandwidth-delay product, throughtput may be
reduced.
