If you change this, you are breaking the RFC and also breaking the
code for retransmits.

As long as you understand that, I would suggest turning on  
qualification.

With qualification, we will adjust the retransmit timers to the actual
latency between the server and the client, which is typically faster  
than
the default roundtrip time in the RFC.

qualify=yes in sip.conf for a peer/user/friend
