Thanks! That was what I was looking for. Quite a costly fix though.

Costly, in terms of what?
Because we reinject the data on another subflow and thus use its bandwidth?

Actually, I agree that the stack should reinject as few packets as possible to prevent wasting bandwidth.

But there won't ever be more than one reinjection per RTT of the fast subflow.
