I notice that the window may be scaled many times during the course of
packet exchanges. I also noticed that the size of the window on the
acknowledge packet immediately before the hang was different nearly
every time. So, my question is:

Is the symptom which exposes the window scaling problem simply the
packet sequence 'request <-> response <-> hang (aka no subsequent
packets)'?
