Hi, About this two-level threshold idea:

What "threshold" means in a given >> algorithm is algorithm-dependent, however. Great, I turn on ECN, and that gives me more delay, just what I want! And, even better: the more people use ECN, the more delay everybody gets. Seriously, I see the incentive idea behind this two-level marking idea, but one has to carefully consider the increased delay vs. gained throughput trade-off in such a scheme. Cheers, Michael
