Hmm... Actually, after re-checking, there weren't much more of those
retransmits at all. In [1] there was one more packet lost, so it took
a bit longer. In [2] (with SACK) the retransmit started earlier and
the rcv window was unchanged. So, it rather looks like differences
in timing of TCP recovery techniques.
