    On upgrading from 2.3.40 to 2.3.41, the speed of tcp on the loopback
    interface has fallen dramatically. I noticed it particularly when
    connecting to INN on the local system. netstat -to shows a large
    (approx 45k) Send-Q almost continuously after data transfer has
    started and data is only transferring at about 2 or Kbytes/sec.

    The transfer rates on ppp (I do not have a LAN connection) do not seem
    to have changed.

    It is consistent that if I boot into 2.3.41 then the loopback is
    slow, and if I boot with 2.3.40 it is back to its normal very fast
    rate.
