You might be forgetting about ack clocking. This gives the sender information about how quickly data is reaching the receiver, and normally the sender will generate either one or two packets for each packet acked. So even without an immediate AQM action, there is still *some* restraint on the sender's behaviour within approximately one RTT. This is one of the many subtle factors that Codel relies on. - Jonathan Morton _______________________________________________ Cake mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cake
