[SM] Yes it sounded like a clever idea (however I would prefer a
clearer signal from the network about queue-filling). However I have heard
precious little about parced-chirping actually working in the real internet,
which IMHO means the following questions are still open:
a) does it actually work under any realistic conditions?
b) under which condition will it fail?
c) how likely are these conditions over the existing internet?
IIRC it uses packet spacing to deduce whether capacity has been reached, and
since packet spacing is a known unreliable source of information it needs to
average and aggregate to make up for operating based on questionable data. IMHO
it would be preferable to solve the "questionable data" problem as my gut
feeling is with better data would come simpler solutions to the same challenge.
Or I am simply misremembering the whole thing and be barking up the wrong tree
;)

That was allowing "rates" below one packet per RTT?

;). You might have seen some of my code, which should indicate that maybe I am
not going to be all that helpful in the "get cracking" department ;)
