I think it'd be best to separate the definition of bandwidth-delay product (BDP) topic of TCP Tuning. I'd recommend cleaning up the paragraph on BDP and then making a new entry for it. This should be linked from the BDP disambig. page and a fuller description of TCP tuning.
I've played a bit with the quoted formula and this simply cannot work. I don't want to suggest Mathis et al are wrong, but surely this has been quoted out of context. My assumption:

I agree - the formula is obviously misquoted. On a perfect link with loss probability almost equal to zero, the throughput diverges against infinity! I'm removing the formula; if somebody knows more about the matter, feel free to include a more plausible one. Zxb (talk) 11:16, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
The formula of course is for an additional limitation for the bitrate. It also applies only in the congestion avoidance mode, so it requires a reasonable amount of packet loss. Adding the formula back with more about its application. Alinja (talk) 16:47, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
