Fixing bufferbloat with PF and OpenBSD In this post
<https://pauladamsmith.com/blog/2018/07/fixing-bufferbloat-on-your-home-network-with-openbsd-6.2-or-newer.html>,
Paul Smith shows how to reduce buffer bloat and improve interactive
traffic latencies.

Long time ago, Daniel Hartmeier wrote a nice piece
<http://benzedrine.cx/ackpri.html> on how to prioritize ACKs and small
packets using ALTQ in PF to sustain download speeds on (mostly)
assymetric links, but since then PF and queuing has undergone quite a
few changes.

To see an example on how the new rulesets should look, and how to score
more internet points on speed tests, head over to his article.
