 Since TCP is a rate-adaptive protocol, the rate at which the TCP sender injects
packets into the network is directly proportional to the prevailing load condition within the network as well as the processing capacity of the receiver.The prevalent conditions within the network are judged by the sender on the basis of the acknowledgments received by it.The acceleration node splits the feedback loop between the sender and the receiver and thus guarantees a shorter round trip time (RTT) per packet.
