I don’t think it is harmful. All that happens is that the packet issue deadlines start to be advanced at a different rate with each packet transmitted. A change in the rate by that mechanism doesn’t cause any packet flushing or other trouble. The flow-discrimination mode and the diffserv mode can also be changed in the same way, but this is more disruptive; it may at least result in some packets arriving out of order within flows, if not also some spurious drops. But the network can tolerate that happening occasionally. - Jonathan Morton _______________________________________________ Cerowrt-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel
