[openib-general] [MAD] RMPP reassembly

[Sean Hefty]

I'm studying the RMPP implementation requirements for reassembly, and 
there are a couple of issues/questions.

* What is an appropriate window size for the receiver to use?  My 
initial thought was to use 1/8th of the receive queue size, but this 
would be easy to change.

* For the total transaction timeout, the equation given to calculate 
the value would probably require 1000+ lines of code, and the default 
value given is 40 seconds, which seems long.  Any opinions on what 
approach to take here?  I can either go with a total reassembly timeout 
value, or a timeout relative to the last received segment.  I'm leaning 
towards whichever ends up being easier to implement.

* Have people found it necessary to keep the context of a reassembled 
MAD around after reassembly has completed?
