We study the performance of several TCP connections through the bottleneck of a slow network accessed via a single queue with high capacity. Using mean-field approximation methology, we establish some asymptotical results about queue length distribution and windo size distribution when the number of user increases proportionally to buffer capacity. We also give an evaluatio- n of TCP fairness under these traffic conditions.
