Yes, and quite possibly. :) Basically, Codel drops packets to try to keep queues small. This works reasonably well. However, what FQ-CoDel adds is flow isolation and priority for sparse flows, which is what in most cases gets rid of almost all of the added latency under load. For a (much) longer version of the above, see this: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1389128615002479 -- In particular, figure 2 shows the performance of a bunch of different algorithms, including CoDel and FQ-CoDel :) -Toke _______________________________________________ Bloat mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/bloat
