*** Notes/Analysis ***

* I took the average satellite Internet latency of 638ms 
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_Internet_access) and tried 20/20mbit 
320ms delay each direction. So here we have 20mbit symmetric Internet with Cake 
running on both the CPE and satellite- common config! I’m sorry we don’t have 
Tooway 6/22mbit anymore for a real test, which was also here in desperation at 
the house at some point.

* Since I left the default rtt setting for most tests, these tests are an 
exploration of what problems that can cause. I enjoy failed experiments though 
(I’m looking at you penicillin). Here we can see that as we increase Cake’s rtt 
setting, total bandwidth improves, generally:

* Cool. In this case, increasing rtt actually _improves_ host fairness, as 
opposed to what we see with Ethernet around rtt 1ms, although TCP RTT suffers:

* Sorry for the delay and not testing much in the last few days. R.I.P. our 
16yo European housecat who left us yesterday. I really liked that cat. I’ve 
enjoyed looking at some of George’s results meanwhile...

*** Round 5 Plans

* If I do another high RTT test, make rtt 1000ms default and try even higher

* From Dave: tcp bbr, cdg, reno? dctcp would be weirdly interesting.

* From Dave: slot 4ms 4ms bytes 10k 16

* If I get time I could change flenter to do asymmetric bandwidth tests and go 
back to Dave’s four box config with ingress cake, which would probably be a 
more common config. All depends on time available…
