I think we need the language of math here. It seems like the network power
metric, introduced by Kleinrock and Jaffe in the late 70s, is something
useful. Effective end/end queue depths per Little's law also seems useful.
Both are available in iperf 2 from a test perspective.

First, I'll note that what they call "small buffer" corresponds to about a
tenth of a millisecond

The argument is absolutely correct for Reno, CUBIC and all
other self-clocked protocols. One of the core assumptions in Jacobson88,
was that the clock for the entire system comes from packets draining
through the bottleneck queue. In this world, the clock is intrinsically
