This is true. The very things that help to make
TCP/IP useful for things like the Internet, make
it less useful over long-propagation-delay networks.
Here are two links that you may find helpful.
The second is a site that has lots of good papers
relating to long propagation networks (space) and the
issues therein. The first is a paper I wrote for a class
that basically tries to sum up similar information.
Take care,
