I doubt its pure transmission latency. Most of the time I consistently
get ~600ms RTT, and its only this Saturday, when internet usage spikes,
that it's been really bad. Plus, you can clearly see the saw tooth
pattern of AIMD congestion control in the ping graphs, with amplitudes
of up to several seconds. I feel pretty confident in saying that this is
bufferbloat.
