The path MTU is available to applications. It seems like a bug in QUIC or Chrome to not send smaller packets when it can know the packets will be fragmented. Or just use TCP. On Fri, Jan 23, 2015 at 11:55:57AM +0900, Lorenzo Colitti wrote: Thanks for reporting this. What was the effect?

Also, broken pMTU/traceroute for: 2a02:58:3:110::23:1 2a01:310:8312:1001::19 2a00:1f00:dc06:11::10 2001:48c8:3:2::2 2607:fcc0:2:1:208:70:247:50 2001:67c:2274:4021::101 I took a look at the tracepath information you sent for these nodes, which showed a bunch of unresponsive nodes but no
