What would be the best setting for the TCP Pacing Profile option? I currently have it set to "slowstart" according to this tweak guide.

It does mention its for Hyper-V 2019 servers, so im very skeptical and feel it should be disabled. Anyone know whats the best value is for gaming?

netsh interface tcp set global pacingprofile=slowstart

Doing some googling and reading articles, I came to the conclusion that TCP Pacing suits more of a server environment, as it prevents "bursts", and delays traffic. Common sense tells me this will increase latency, so Im going to say keep this setting off for gaming.

Yeah, anything to do with "fairness" would slow down your connection to be more "courteous" to neighboring traffic flows.
