Re: [lwip-users] Retransmit too quick?

[Sergio R. Caprile]

The RAW API is event driven code.
The ACK is handled as an ACK by lwIP. This means the window is updated,
the sent pbufs are freed, and you can send data again.
You can't send more data until you receive an ACK for your window size.
You can't queue more data until lwIP frees pbus (when you receive an ACK).
There is no point in calling the send function when you don't have room
to queue/send more data, this causes CPU hog.
There is no point in calling the send function at specific intervals
(assuming you need to send a big bunch of data); if the ACK gets
received in between the interval, you'll have dead times where nothing
is sent.
The write time to call the send function is when the sent callback is fired.
You are free to choose and write your app the way you want; but, if it
does not work and you ask for help...
Good luck.
