Karthik,

I don't think you will get good input from your two-liner questions.
You need to explain more of the context you are coming from and what  
problem you are trying to solve.
It may help to read:
   http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

How much sliding window your compressor needs depends a lot on what  
your compressor does.
Section 6 of RFC 3095 is about implementation issues, please read again:

6.  Implementation issues

    This document specifies mechanisms for the protocol and leaves many
    details on the use of these mechanisms to the implementers.  This
    chapter is aimed to give guidelines, ideas and suggestions for
    implementing the scheme.

Section 5.7.6.9 tells you a lot about how the information in the LOSS  
option could be used by the compressor.

Gruesse, Carsten
