I would really like this sort of stuff (and the self similarity paper
already cited) revisited with modern traffic.

(thank you for the hyperlinks!)

One of my issues with the above paper is that it predates bufferbloat
being a prevailing problem on networks and the huge amount of
additional bandwidth now available. Routing message size and frequency
now is only a problem with BGP, and in virtualized routed
environments.

The other issue, is that most link technologies today have wildly
variable access times to the media itself (notably wireless and wifi),
so these naturally act to desynchronize routing updates in the
protocols I'm familiar with.

Neither of my points have been proved! I've been meaning to rip out
desynchronization from babel for wireless interfaces for years now....

*Classic* but also dated. Is there nothing more recent?

I will see what I can find on bursty traffic.
