The results shown in your graphs seem unmistakable … One question: how can one be sure (if it is possible) that the fluctuation of the throughput of a TCP flow on a given node is caused by bufferbloat issues in the node, and not by other factors (such as, e.g., systematic drops in some other nodes along the path followed by the flow, with the drops possibly even caused by different reasons than bufferbloat)?
