So my "acid test", taken on a linux box over ethernet, through a cerowrt box with sqm-scripts turned off. This is my gf's comcast "blast" service, which is rated for 55mbits down and 5.5mbits up. The new speedtest does indeed show results that have the typical bloat (nearly a second) a cable modem has when tested solely for up and down, separately.
http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/322800 A) I definitely am not particularly huge on defaulting to a log scale for this graph. Or rather, I would be huge on the graph defaulting to a linear scale AND huge when you get numbers as bad as this. :) B) is there a way to specify ipv6? 2) So I did a follow on speedtest with fq_codel enabled to shape with sqm. it may be that my upload shaper is a bit over what is desirable for this link, and I need to repeat. http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/322992 3) For giggles, this one is with ecn enabled both on the shaper and on the tcp I am using, showing that this speedtest site will use ecn when enabled: http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/323101 Some ecn mark results on the shaper for that: http://pastebin.com/sniePC1M Both these tests are showing some latency spikes so it does look like I should tune down the shaper a bit. 3) The rrul, rrul_be, tcp_upload, and tcp_download test data from netperf-wrapper under both these circumstances (no ecn) is up at: http://snapon.lab.bufferbloat.net/~d/lorna-ethernet.tgz Feel free to create graphs and comparisons to suit selves. A few graphs: cdf plot of latency (have to use a log scale!!) compared between the shaped and unshaped alternatives... http://snapon.lab.bufferbloat.net/~d/lorna-ethernet/comcast_55_speedtest_comparison.png what the overbuffered download looks like: http://snapon.lab.bufferbloat.net/~d/lorna-ethernet/comcast_55_speedtest_comparison_download_bloated.png The shaped fq_codeled equivalent: http://snapon.lab.bufferbloat.net/~d/lorna-ethernet/comcast_55_speedtest_comparison_download_fq_codeled.png (log scale comparison again - 10ms of induced latency vs 400+! Aggh) And a graph of probably minimal usefulness comparing the behavior of the shaped vs unshaped download flow configurations, for both ipv4 and ipv6. http://snapon.lab.bufferbloat.net/~d/lorna-ethernet/comcast_55_speedtest_comparison_download_compared.png On Sun, Apr 19, 2015 at 10:43 AM, Dave Taht <dave.t...@gmail.com> wrote: > I am going to do an acid test today.
