Good; though I'm not sure you'll be able to build a TCP one that fills the
buffers fast enough to determine some of the buffering out there (at least
without hacking the TCP implementation, anyway).

The other piece of this is detecting flow queuing being active; this makes
a bigger difference to actual latency than mark/drop algorithms do by
themselves.
