SubjectRe: 2.0 a lot better than 2.2 on high-latency links.

A friend told me "window scaling" would help a lot, but as far as
I can see, it is already turned on,

It is ok by default, but the default send/recv buffer max/default
settings prevent it from being utilized since the limits are within
what non-window scaling allows.

A possible cause is that the network DOES deliver lots of packets
out-of-order, but in reality no packets are really lost.

Try turning off TCP timestamps, see if that helps.
