If i reverse it, problem disappearing.
How i reproduce it:
In two consoles do "fast" ping to nearby host
ping 194.146.XXX.XXX -s1472 -i0.0001
ping 194.146.XXX.XXX -s1472 -i0.1
For third open ssh to host with "problem", open mcedit, and just scroll
down large text file.
After few seconds some "stalls" will occur, and in ping history i can
see:
1480 bytes from 194.146.153.7: icmp_req=1797 ttl=64 time=0.161 ms

1480 bytes from 194.146.153.7: icmp_req=1806 ttl=64 time=0.226 ms
If i apply small patch - problem will disappear. Sure it is not a
solution, but
let me know how i can help to debug problem more.
