Increase the initial CWND to 10 segments as defined in IETF TCPM
draft-ietf-tcpm-initcwnd-03 discussing why the higher initial window
improves the overall performance of many web services without risking
congestion collapse.

As long as it remains a draft it is not enabled by default and placed
under a sysctl marking it clearly as experimental:
 net.inet.tcp.exprimental.initcwnd10

Linux as of kernel 3.0 has enabled it by default.
