Of course that's not too good, but noone has provided a decent, working

One accepted improvement are "delayed ACKs" where we only send an empty
ACK for every 2nd segment.

Thinking about that, given an embedded OS which is strictly priority-driven, for netconn & sockets, maybe a solution would be to implement netconn_tcp_recvd to update an ACKed counter and send a message to tcpip_thread instead of using CORE_LOCK. That way, new segments arriving in tcpip_thread could send the updated window as piggy-back to the empty ACK...

This wouldn't change anything for callback API apps though.
