Hi Raul,
there are some implementation details relating to packet counts and
connection synchronisation that can influence the non-synchronisation
of packets, but I'm not sure that they would cause the effect that you
describe.
The details are that there is a proc value, sync_threshold which can
be set to between 0 and 49 with a default of 3. Once a connection has
received this many packets it will be queued for synchronisation. It will
then be re-synchronised every 50 packets.
