    Quick Answer40 ms. With slow-start, cwnd doubles each RTT starting from 1 MSS. You need 12 MSS to fill the 24 KB rwnd, which is reached after 4 RTTs (1→2→4→8→16 MSS). Key StepsWindow in MSS: 24 KB / 2 KB = 12 MSS. Slow-start growth (cwnd in MSS): 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ... Smallest cwnd ≥ 12 MSS is 16 MSS, reached after 4 RTTs. Time = 4 × 10 ms RTT = 40 ms. Your approach likely treated cwnd growth as linear or miscounted the doubling sequence. The correct model uses exponential growth (doubling) in slow-start until cwnd meets or exceeds the rwnd limit. — KG AI Mentor 🤖
