So I got a new flat in Sweden with ethernet-to-the-wall 100/100 Mbps internet (for ~$50/month. The municipality owns the infrastructure and providers offer service; I had 9 different providers to pick from). Did some measurements with my laptop plugged in to it. One plot is just plugging in the laptop without fiddling with any settings (other than having fq_codel as the system-wide default qdisc): http://files.toke.dk/bufferbloat/data/karlstad/rrul-2014-02-08T010909.617794.Laptop_plugged_into_apt_wall.png The second one is after putting in an HTB shaper: http://files.toke.dk/bufferbloat/data/karlstad/rrul-2014-02-08T142522.645782.Laptop_htb_105_110Mbps.png And a CDF for comparison: http://files.toke.dk/bufferbloat/data/karlstad/cdf_comparison.png All the data is available at http://files.toke.dk/bufferbloat/data/karlstad/ including the HTB script that set things up. In conclusion: Weeeeh! :D Now to find a router that can handle HTB at those speeds... -Toke
