These are (I assume) with the patch reversed. What are the values with the patch applied?

Yes- that was on a good kernel, with the patch reversed.

On a bad kernel, with the patch applied (2.6.16-git16):

tcp_wmem: 4096 16384 4194304
tcp_rmem: 4096 87380 4194304
tcp_mem: 98304 131072 196608

They seem to be identical, which makes sense, since most websites work just fine.

I am sending tcpdump's privately to you and Stephen. If anyone else wants to see them, just ask.
