Stalled as in, sender has data to send, receiver is ready to receive, but the transfer makes no progress or proceeds very slowly.
I can't quote a number for the drop percentage, honestly I've forgot. Discovering the limit was a side effect, we were simply looking to test how a piece of software would behave over a bad connection. I just remember being surprised that everything just stopped when I put in packet loss that wasn't anywhere near 100%.
My since-then-adjusted expectations would put any double digit percentage (yes, starting from 10%) of random packet loss as unusable conditions for TCP.
