I suspect real marketing drones would get nervous at a negative-sounding name. My idea - which I’ve floated in the past, more than once - is that the metric should be “responsiveness”, measured in Hertz. The baseline standard would be 10Hz, corresponding to a dumb 100ms buffer. Get down into the single-digit millisecond range, as fq_codel does, and the Responsiveness goes up above 100Hz, approaching 1000Hz. Crucially, that’s a positive sort of term, as well as trending towards bigger numbers with actual improvements in performance, and is thus more potentially marketable. - Jonathan Morton _______________________________________________ Cerowrt-devel mailing list Cerowrt-devel@lists.bufferbloat.net https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cerowrt-devel
