The default UDT parameters are tuned for very high speed networks. In very
low bandwidth environment, it may send too many packets out before it
detects the available bandwidth, thus it cause many packet loss. We are
working on automatic parameter tuning on this issue.
Thanks for the report on your interesting experiment.
