Description Alex Afanasyev 2012-01-03 14:00:48 EST
Upon reset, initial estimation in RttEstimator is set to 1ns.  As a result, on large-RTT links (>minRTT) there is always timeout, real RTT is never calculated, and congestion window cannot grow beyond initial value.

The following patch introduces a new variable to remember the initial estimate configured by ns-3 object system
