It is actually a problem that keeps many people busy because a number of
data center switches have very high port count with very small buffers.
 Some people address these buy using switches with bigger buffers, but
that's not a luxury that everyone indulges in.

That is why I specifically asked the question at the AQM meeting about
applicability of AQM to all types of networks/switches.  I was told the
answer is "yes" and so I would like to see this scenario addressed as well.
 Perhaps AQM cannot help this, but hopefully it won't hurt.  Trying to do
fancy things with small buffers is challenging.
