I started a kernel bisect between 4.15.0-34 and 4.15.0-36. The kernel bisect will require testing of about 7-10 test kernels.
I built the first test kernel, up to the following commit: 003ae88ae88d48643e71dc69c18d4eda598339d5 The test kernel can be downloaded from: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1796895 Can you test that kernel and report back if it has the bug or not? I will build the next test kernel based on your test results.

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.
