        This is interesting. I also like the way iperf3 reports retransmits 
(BTW way how does it know this, I thought the kernel does the retransmits under 
the hood out of sight of applications). Since RRUL does not have such a nice 
report as iperf3 I will not be able to calculate the difference to the 
theoretical maximum transfer rates (also I lack insight on the ACK traffic).

        The plots are interesting, even though I have a hard time with the 
logarithmic scale.

        I like how the RRUL flows soak up the newly available bandwidth.

        I will have a look at the flint files, but it looks like the 1200ac 
does 500Mbps bidirectionally with SQM, so this looks like a decent machine for 
the present and (near?) future. Now I just need to wait until prices come down 
a tad (I hope that the 1900AC v2 release should drop the 1200ac’s process a 
bit).

Thanks for the tests, now I know what router to try next (the edgerouterX, 
which I had eyed as a replacement for the shaper in the wndr3700 tops out at 
130K packets per second and hence will not really work that well for a 100/40 
Mbps link).

Best Regards
        Sebastian
