We had a similar issue with our MySQL server farm (seven dedicated MySQL
servers). Replication was very slow, falling behind for no apparent
reason. We were reaching 24 hours of lag! We never had that kind of lag
before. A couple of minutes at the most.

Long story short, we rebooted to 4.15.0.34 and the servers caught up
replication with in minutes!

Title:
  Kernel 4.15.0-36 network performance regression

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Hardware:

  HP DL380 Gen 7 server with Gigabit interface.
  Ubuntu release: 18.04.1

  Since upgrading from 4.15.0-33 to 4.15.0-36, I have noticed a dramatic
  slowdown in TCP over IPv6.

  Set up: two servers, Server A in US on Ubuntu 18.04.1, Server B in
  Europe.

  Test: Sending 400MB over TCP from Server B to Server A.

  With 4.15.0-33 on Server A, the transfer is completed in 24 seconds,
  with average speed of 139 mbps.

  With 4.15.0-36 on Server A, the same amount of data is transferred in
  369 seconds, average speed less than 9 mbps.

  Looking at the result from tcpdump, I see that the there is a big
  difference in the TCP Window size.

  With 3.15-0.33 the TCP window size is around 30000. But with
  3.15-0.36, the window size is only 734.
