[lwip-users] Retransmission timeout

[Zschocke, Florian]

This maybe a stupid question, but I fail to answer it myself. 

I understand that lwIP is using van Jacobson's algorithm for RTO
determination. But what is the minimum timeout value? The minimum timeout
before a retransmission is started? What I was able to deduce from the code
reads as if it would be 3000*TCP_SLOW_INTERVAL, i.e. 3000*500ms, i.e. 25min.
That seems a bit long thus I assume I'm missing something important here.

Thanks,
Florian.
