Nicolas et al,

Few minor comments and suggestions on draft-ietf-tsvwg-rtcweb-qos-04.txt -

1.      We should require all tests to be first conducted with AQM disabled.
        This will provide a good reference point for comparison and also help 
to verify that
        test network and traffic configurations are consistent across different 
test groups.
2.      In tests, where network parameters are changed dynamically (e.g., link 
capacity, congestion level), 
        it would be useful to capture and compare metrics during the first few 
seconds after the change.
        To evaluate how quickly and gracefully the algorithms respond to such 
changes.
3.      Would be useful to add to the metrics list - the number of packets 
dropped due to tail-drop.
4.      We should add link rates of 1 Gbps and 10 Gbps.
5.      In the traffic mix test in section 8.1, it would be useful to test with 
a large number of users, 
        as specified in section 7.2.4, especially for web traffic.
6.      Should we require that AQM algorithm parameter settings be identical 
across all tests?
        Or at least be a small set of profiles?
7.      It's not clear how FQ-AQM should be handled. Section 13.3 seems to punt 
on the issue.
        An AQM algorithm with FQ will exhibit quite different results compared 
to one without FQ.
        Should one compare a test scenario with AQM and a single queue vs one 
with FQ-AQM?

My apologies if some of these suggestions have been discussed and disposed of 
before. 
        In which case, please ignore them.

Regards,
Anil
