Hi Simon Very good point -- I also think this falls into the scope of draft-ietf-aqm-eval-guidelines aligned with my interpretation of your words. I believe Section 8.2.2 of https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-aqm-eval-guidelines-08 somewhat implicitly covers that. Cheers, Naeem On Tue, Oct 1

Nicolas, Good catch although I tend to think that the impact of this would be more visible on FIFO/DropTail queues; with an AQM presumably set at a low threshold this impact will probably be less profound (although depending on too many other factors, such as the load, multiplexing level, BDP, etc

I fully agree with the need to have AQMs that use "queuing delay" as metric and not "queue length" and this is already a bonus for algorithms that use this metric (e.g. PIE). However, I believe that one can possibly modify RED or its derivatives (e.g. Adaptive RED) to set their thresholds based on
