Put the speed-test /into the router/, with a big red button to turn fq_codel on and off. * The performance reporting graphs can then run on a browser page for as long as you like, while you do other things, and go back to the page and see what it's been like. * Have a line for "perfect" performance, and anyone can see how close you're system is coming to it. * Have a button for a synthetic load test, of some shortish duration, and, * Put it on normal Linux hosts too, so you can test end-to-end. This has the advantage that it's code-first, so you don't have to convince the uninterested, and from it you can write a small and limited RFC to tell everyone else how you did it. As each new improvement comes along, actual performance slowly gets closer and closer to the optimal performance line... --dave On 28/11/16 10:21 AM, Jonathan Foulkes wrote: > Thanks for the Introduction Rich, and thanks again to you and many others on this list for all your contributions over the years helping to combat bloat. > > This product was born of my own frustration with finding a way to help neighbors and family get a simple off-the-shelf solution that even non-technical users can deploy. > > I look forward to participating more actively on this list. > > Jonathan > >> On Nov 26, 2016, at 9:08 AM, Rich Brown wrote: >> >> I have been exchanging a few emails with Jonathan Foulkes from evenroute.com. He tells me that his company is installing OpenWrt on a commercial, off the shelf (COTS) TP-Link router and selling them on commercially. His "secret sauce" is an auto-update facility and improved setup software, which includes a rate-detection step that operates continually to adjust the fq_codel parameters to the actual line rate.
