If you try to bump them up WAY high, maybe.  But you might see problems
if you had them only at 64K.

I know that MacTCP had problems (I think it still does) where if there
were packets unacknowledged, it would retransmit all the packets in the
tcp window.  The bigger the window size, the more likely it would have
to retransmit a lot of packets.  This could cause intermittent drops.
