Regarding these passages from the slide deck: What do the results suggest? .... There may be a tradeoff between upload latency and upload throughput, and that tradeoff is not necessarily linear: there may be a “sweet spot” where latency is noticeably reduced, while the impact on throughput is negligible What happens next? .... Fixed buffer size setting impractical for scaled usage I would agree that there is a delay/throughput "sweet spot", one that varies across network scenarios. BBR congestion control is specifically designed to dynamically estimate the bandwidth and delay characteristics of the path, to estimate where that "sweet spot" is, and operate near it. The BBR paper ( currently on the ACM Queue site - http://queue.acm.org/app/ ) has a diagram and discussion related to this non-linear delay/throughput trade-off that the presentation mentions. neal _______________________________________________ Cerowrt-devel mailing list Cerowrt-devel@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel
