SubjectTCP reaching to maximum throughput after a long time
Date
Hi,
After updating from Kernel 3.14 to Kernel 4.4 we have seen a TCP performance degradation over Wi-Fi.
In 3.14 kernel, TCP got to its max throughout after less than a second, while in the 4.4 it is taking ~20-30 seconds.
UDP TX/RX and TCP RX performance is as expected.
We are using a Beagle Bone Black and a WiLink8 device.

Were there any related changes that might cause such behavior ?
Kernel configuration and sysctl values were compared, but no significant differences have been found.

See a log of the behavior below :
