Pick the smallest possible TCP window scaling factor that will still allow
us to scale up to sb_max, aka kern.ipc.maxsockbuf. We do this because there are broken firewalls that will corrupt the window scale option, leading to the other endpoint believing that our advertised window is unscaled. At scale factors larger than 5 the unscaled window will drop below 1500 bytes, leading to serious problems when traversing these broken firewalls. With the default maxsockbuf of 256K, a scale factor of 3 will be chosen by this algorithm. Those who choose a larger maxsockbuf should watch out for the compatiblity problems mentioned above.
