OK thanks, nothing seems wrong on receiver side.

Could you try to force ECN enabled flows and send tcpdump, to check if
we receive retransmits ?

echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_ecn


And check tcp can engage ECN : tcpdump SYN/SYNACK should look like:

05:41:17.943538 IP 192.168.1.97.45986 > 68.232.35.119.80: Flags [SEW],

0,nop,wscale 6], length 0
