If you really wish to understand how the tcp stack works better and / or
fix bugs in it, you really need to use tcpdump to log what is actually
passing over the wire.  The statistics from netstat -s are only meant as
an overview, and are not detailed enough to make inferences about how
things are actually working.

If you can show specific behaviors in a tcpdump that you're interested in,
I'm sure that many people would be willing to help answer your questions.
