The paper proposes local and global optimization schemes for efficient TCP buffer allocation in an HTTP server. The proposed local optimization scheme dynamically adjusts the TCP send-buffer size to the connection and server characteristics. The global optimization scheme divides a certain amount of buffer space among all active TCP connections. These schemes are of increasing importance due to the large scale of TCP connection characteristics. The schemes are compared to the static allocation policy employed by a typical HTTP server and shown to achieve considerable improvement to server performance and better utilization of its resources. The schemes require only minor code changes and only at the server.
