Hiho!

I've got a weird TCP problem on 2.1.90....
Using a TCP connection over my SMC card or an ISDN Connection
to my ISP breaks after a few minutes...
The troughput drops to nearly 0 but the CPU load caused by
the system rises very high... to about 90%...
I'm afraid I can't give you anything else to work with just because
I got *no* errors anywhere; everything seems to be like normal...
I believe I got this problem since 2.1.87 but there it wasn't so obvious
to me because it appeared after about a hour networking....

I believe there is some loop in the TCP code where execution hangs
or the egcs system or gas is misoptimizing loops for some reason....

Any ideas where to start debugging are appreciated....
