The same way. I have a separate Linux machine with two bridged
interfaces and some qdiscs to control latency and bandwidth. We've also
done some tests using UMTS and DSL connections.

We've been focusing on responsiveness, but that should be correlated
with throughput. Example tests have been typing, dragging things around
and playing movies.

Note that maximum throughput has explicitly not been the goal. Doing so
would have ruined latency as that fills up buffers. The goal of the
algorithm is to maximize throughput without sacrificing latency. In
practice it can of course never be perfect, but the numbers I've seen
during my tests shows that it tends to be pretty damn close.

Further improvements can probably be made, but we're at a point where
we deem it good enough for now and are looking to put the stuff in the
hands of users first.
