[Bloat] Windows 10 updates multhread limit Feature request to Microsoft

2020-03-27 Thread cloneman
I don't know if the Windows 10 updates multithreading problem is still relevant for many users, but it certainly still affects me as user with low bufferbloat, low latency, and only moderate bandwidth (50mbit , 4ms idle, ~9ms loaded) In any case, I have submitted official feedback to microsoft, as

[Bloat] unfixable bloat on Cable modem CODA-4680 (puma 7)

I'm getting a weird problem with this new modem , it's Docsis 3.1 latency/jitter measured via ping is about ~300ms during download pressure of 3 http transfers. The latency doesn't appear on synthetic bufferbloat benchmarks, though. (dslreports ; 20ms ("A") question: trying to figure out why I'm

[Bloat] Does VDSL interleaving+FEC help bufferbloat?

2019-01-03 Thread cloneman
Interleaving on DSL is enabled by many providers which allegedly provides some packet loss protection at the cost of some latency. I think it's designed mainly Layer 1 line noise, but now I'm wondering if it might also translate to other benefits, even on a clean DSL line that doesn't *need* inter

[Bloat] Writing an article that includes a bufferbloat section

2017-12-22 Thread cloneman
Hi, I'm working on an article that compares traffic management solutions on common SOHO routers. It should appear in about a month on DSLr. It will be 80% accurate and 20% is speculative based on my collection of best guesses and personal experience using tc / sfq / fq_codel. I wanted to run it b

[Bloat] Tuning fq_codel: are there more best practices for slow connections? (<1mbit)

2017-11-01 Thread cloneman
I'm trying to gather advice for people stuck on older connections. It appears that having dedictated /micromanged tc classes greatly outperforms the "no knobs" fq_codel approach for connections with slow upload speed. When running a single file upload @350kbps , I've observed the competing ICMP t

Hi, Appologies in advance if this is the wrong place to ask, I haven't been able to locate an official discussion board. I'm looking for any comments on Steam's game distribution download system - specifically how it defeats any bufferbloat mitigation system I've used. It seems to push past inbo

Hi, Apologies in advance if this is the wrong place to ask. I'm looking for any comments on Steam's game distribution download system - specifically how it defeats any bufferbloat management system I've used. It seems to push past inbound policers, exceeding them by about 40%. That is to say, yo
