Thanks Dave for summarizing the current state of speedtests at https://blog.cerowrt.org/post/speedtests/. (Perhaps this post  should be linked from the Bufferbloat.net home page?)

I really enjoyed Jim Roskind's presentation when I watched it on Youtube: https://youtu.be/_uaaCiyJCFA?t=499 I found the part about outliers and why p50 and p90 are problematic to be delightfully intuitive. (This Youtube link is queued up at that point, but start at the beginning to see the full presentation.)
