Hi Kevin,

Maybe don't use the ptm keyword, but rather reduce the shaper rates to at most 98.46 percent of the sync rate...

Now that you can join the party, I note there IS a flent server in england with irtt on it.

flent-london.bufferbloat.net

Ok, well if you’re desperately interested….. :-)

Plot I did running to the london server, one shaped at 99% downstream, the other at 98%…. and I’ve decided to stick at 98% as a result - plot is a little bit hard to distinguish but I’d say there’s around 8ms avg less latency-ish between the two.  And an order of magnitude between using london v fremont :-)

The upstream barely registers
