This option tells Onload to reset TCP connections rather than allow data to be transmitted late. Specifically, TCP connections are reset if the retransmit timeout fires. (This usually happens when data is lost, and normally triggers a retransmit which results in data being delivered hundreds of milliseconds late).

Important: This option is likely to cause connections to be reset spuriously if ACK packets are dropped in the network.
