Over and above the rate control algorithm Linux has a bunch of features that make it work much better than a to-the-spec cubic implementation (not surprising with a bunch of large content providers like $EMPLOYER submitting their fixes upstream). Things like TCP pacing and the work from the bufferbloat folk have really improved things. https://fasterdata.es.net/host-tuning/linux/fair-queuing-scheduler/ _______________________________________________ luv-main mailing list [email protected] https://lists.luv.asn.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/luv-main
