I think DASH type protocol will hit link peaks. An example with iperf
2's burst option a controlled WiFi test rig, server side first.
[SM] I think that depends, each segment has only a finite length and
if this can delivered before slow start ends that burst might never
hit the capacity?

I believe most CDNs are setting the initial CWND so TCP can bypass slow
start. Slow start seems an engineering flaw from the perspective of low
latency. It's done for "fairness" whatever that means.
