Just redone my waveform buffer bloat test.

Which will be interesting as I will be switching to Youfibre 50 in acouple of weeks.

Strangely today download is performing better (well its capping slower so not bloating), upload was performing worse so I had to turn on upstream QoS, which managed to get me down to B tier.

Is that only testing single threaded downloads?  As speedtest.net does not agree when multi-threaded:

But concurs for a single thread:


Still not great compared to the result I had earlier in the year which was A tier without any QoS my side.

Though again this is all for education purposes only, I don't experience any negative aspects of this as I'm not trying to do low latency during big downloads.

Yeah, will be good to see how it changes with the move to full alt net.

Alex yeah I wouldnt expect much effect in real world usage from buffer bloat, in my view its a much lesser evil compared to heavy packet loss which just destroys everything bar the download.  There is a guy on TBB who started getting the packet loss issues that I used to have on VDSL when downloading and like me he reported it made using the connection painful whilst downloading.
