Well, it's not very fast in terms of throughput, but the latency seems to be about as good as I get normally. But perhaps that's because I'm starting from Northern Europe and so I'm already used to intercontinental traffic due to the prevalence of US-based servers. I do see occasional brief stalls during the download, but these are substantially less intrusive than what I get on my 3G modem. They suggest that packets are being dropped at reasonably regular intervals, but the TCP is recovering quickly. I can't tell whether RED is triggering (without ECN) or whether these are tail-drops on a fairly short queue. Incidentally my download is coming across IPv6, so it may be triggering the related Linux bug. This shouldn't totally disable the negotiation though, so more likely there's a broken router in the way. - Jonathan _______________________________________________ Bloat mailing list Bloat@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/bloat
