1. A method comprising:

  • storing in memory of a particular server, a first congestion window value used in transmitting data packets over a first network connection to a first client device, wherein the first congestion window value is larger than a default initial congestion value used to initialize said first network connection;

    establishing a different second network connection between the particular server and a second client, wherein said establishing comprises (i) initializing a congestion window of the second network connection with the first congestion window value from the first network connection in response to commonality in addressing between the first client and the second client, and (ii) initializing the congestion window of the second network connection with the default initial congestion window value in response to no commonality in the addressing between the first client and the second client;

    regulating, with the first congestion window value, transmission of an initial set of data packets from the particular server to the second client over the second network connection in response to said commonality in addressing between the first client and the second client; and

    regulating, with the default initial congestion value, transmission of said initial set of data packets from the particular server to the second client over the second network connection in response to no commonality in addressing between the first client and the second client.
