Given that multiple corps I work with now will not use zoom at all, others will only use msteams, others still fleeing from google, and in my world, p2p (via skype, telegram, matrix, signal), and group (matrix is trialing a stacked SFU based on the pion library), dominates in general I do not buy the "must test the mass market surveillance capitalism videoconferencing tool", concept... rather... one that takes 10 minutes to setup, control the source code to, and servers it runs on, as well as the statistics it collects. What is research today will be common one day, and I for one would welcome the end of metered, centralized, and surveilled videoconferencing. Stuff built around the pion library is currently best in class for what can be achieved over webrtc, in terms of latency. Zoom went the other way, preserving video quality, at the expense of interactivity. > Also, given the density issues facing LEO services, a single sample can’t > be taken as particularly representative – you’d need more users across a > broader range of density/terrain types. > > I 110% agree, which is why I asked here, which has multiple researchers engaged in wider scale and long term studies. 2? (3?) weeks back I was seeing, about once every 5 minutes, a jump to a 70ms baseline latency, which I do not see in the past week´s worth of data. I would also typically see worse behavior on a downshift of available bandwidth. I can (and do) pick these out via a CDF plot over time but the data is noisy as heck. Given that I have no particularly good tools for measuring a zoom conference, I am kind of leveraging making a recording of a podcast, and counting glitches with a stopwatch.
