In the flent rrul test, up to about 10 ms induced latency can be seen during the "powerboost" phase but after that it is almost zero. I'm curious about how this is implemented on the ISP side. If anything, sqm seems to induce a bit more latency during the "steady-state" phase.

I’ve been sideswiped by such things before when testing sqm, and making theory and experiment fully agree can take science and time.
