Which has nothing at all to do with the asymmetry of the circuit at all. Buffer bloat is an issue in and of itself. I agree it can be an issue it just has nothing to do with the symmetry argument. In my opinion, it is just a reaction to customers who never want to see a packet lost but not understanding what the cost of that is. Steven Naslund Chicago IL
