I think DASH type protocol will hit link peaks. An example with iperf 
2's burst option a controlled WiFi test rig, server side first.

Note: Client side output is being updated to support outputs based upon 
the bursts. This allows one to see that a DASH type protocol can drive 
the bw bottleneck queue.
