As y'all know, my principal concern regarding fixing bufferbloat has mostly centered around making interactive traffic better, like dns, voip, and videoconferencing, and not really on "making tcp go way fast". Since yer all stuck at home now doing videoconferencing every day, and I, at least, have seen terrible videoconference after videoconference all month... particularly from those on LTE.... I would be curious to know who of the ietf contingent has done things like check for bufferbloat on their home links and fix it? dslreports.com has the best web based bufferbloat related test I know of. If you could send along your score, and what, if anything you've done to mitigate it, that would be great! The dslreports report on bufferbloat worldwide can be had at: http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/results/bufferbloat?up=1 The data is biased in a couple ways in that we use that site a lot to tune up our sqm implementations, and they throw out a lot of data they consider to be "insane". For more professional analyses, particularly at rates well above 200Mbit, bufferbloat.net recommends the flent.org and irtt tools and "rrul" test, in particular, and using your own servers as targets. There IS a worldwide flent fleet up as viable low bandwidth targets, but... if anyone has a spare 10Gbit server in their dc we could add in for more testers and testing, please let me know offlist? Some random recommendations for better videoconferencing at home: * use wires! wifi and lte can really suck. * get LOTS more bandwidth! * Banish everyone else from the network while videoconferencing!
