Hey guys, did you try turning it off and on again? Just kidding, but you know what they say - the answer is always the one you least expect!

Reset on Timeout? That's an interesting one. Could be worth a try, but I feel like we might be barking up the wrong tree here. Maybe we need to take a step back and really analyze the problem.

Nagle's Algorithm? That's a classic networking trick, but I'm not sure it's the right fix for a streaming app. Might be worth a shot, but I'd be curious to hear what the others think.

C: I'm not sure about Nagle's Algorithm, but disabling Slow Start or Reset on Timeout could also help optimize the application for streaming.

A: I think we should try disabling Nagle's Algorithm to see if that improves the video loading speed.

Disabling Selective ACKs? That could be a good idea, but I'm not sure it's the root cause of the issue. Might be worth trying, but I'd double-check the other options first.

Hmm, the slow video loading seems to indicate a problem with the TCP profile. Let's see, disabling Slow Start might help, but I'm not sure that's the best option here.
