[Bloat] Bufferbloat in high resolution + non-stationarity

Folks,

I have uploaded a presentation of high-fidelity network performance
measures which includes an example of bufferbloat in high resolution, as
possibly you have never seen it before.

See slide 18 of this deck:
https://www.slideshare.net/mgeddes/stationarity-is-the-new-speed. The
classic "bloat" is a sudden formation of the queue, and a very slow (and
steady) draining. Bufferbloat is just one form of statistical variability
("non-stationarity") in packet networks.

For a world record winner, see this one
<https://www.dropbox.com/s/q8226i6sulahmr3/minute.jpg?dl=0> where packets
take over a minute (Huawei WiFi hotspot roaming in Ireland with UK SIM)! Or
for a pretty picture of buffers draining, try this one
<https://www.dropbox.com/s/m9tn9k93gzx08et/draining%20queues.jpg?dl=0>.

Happy to answer any questions.

Martin Geddes
