BSSP is erroneously sending bssp block acknowledgments by TCP rather than by UDP. (Also, the retransmission timeout interval is being set to zero and acknowledgments themselves are subject to retransmission, but these glitches appear to be of less importance.) So long as the frequency of bssp block arrivals is low, the acknowledgment volume is manageable even though it is being carried by TCP. But at higher data rates the volume of TCP (bssp acknowledgment) activity becomes so heavy that UDP congestion loss begins to increase, degrading video quality.
