Subject: Re: [Bloat] fremont flent node: what's the network setup there?

Message-ID: <CAA93jw7FGJ8+0TVSy7m4Vhy5kqjLBtVrpjYJgewxkDNO1ar2=g@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

the simplest answer is for you to send me an ssh key I can put there.
second simplest is for me to fire up a new box and new kernel over
there and put your ssh key there also. It would not surprise me for
linode to have a rate limit somewhere elsewhere....

 Lemme go spin up a new box in a minute.

It's currently sch_fq and cubic on kernel 4.8.6-x86_64-linode78.

also:

net.ipv4.tcp_ecn = 1
net.ipv4.tcp_ecn_fallback = 1
