What factors determine the transmission rate reached by a TCP connection?

Hey everyone.

I am an IT intern working on a small network at a company. I have been learning in-depth about TCP and the ways in which you can improve or bog-down the performance of a TCP connection. A thought has crossed my mind- what factors determine the transmission rate reached by a TCP connection?

Some things I have thought of are window size, max segment size, and error control, but I am sure I am missing some more niche and important factors as well. Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!
