Why is the default socket-reuse-policy set to USE_LAST_ACCESSED_SOCKET
by default ?

Wouldn't it be better to use USE_WARMEST_SOCKET or even
USE_WARM_SOCKET or as the default so that we are more likely to have
passed the slow-start phase of TCP ?

There appears to be some sort of field trial going on if the policy is
not set on the command line.
