    draft-ietf-tcpm-dctcp-02 says:
    
    ... when the sender receives an indication of congestion
    (ECE), the sender SHOULD update cwnd as follows:
    
             cwnd = cwnd * (1 - DCTCP.Alpha / 2)
    
    So, lets do this and reduce cwnd more smoothly (and faster), as per
    current congestion estimate.
