The upload wasn't even saturated. Probably why upload bloat was very low. Large bloat on the download just shows you the server really can push more than 1Gb. 200ms bloat with 913Mb down is about 20MiB of buffer. That's insane! That's about 20x more buffer than my entire 24 port 1Gb Procurve managed switch. What kind of network equipment has that much buffer?
That's typically one distinction between L3 switch and a "router". The L3 switch typically has on-die memory that can be as low as 128KB or up to a few megabytes of memory.
Then you have the real "service edge" routers with 128.000 queues that's used to aggregate tens of thousands of customers, where a linecard can have many gigabytes of packet buffer memory.
