Subject: Re: 2.6.20.7 TCP cubic (and bic) initial slow start way too slow?
Hi Bill,
Thank you for your good work!
As you mentioned that we've been considering the problems of less
aggressiveness of BIC and CUBIC. We are testing BIC and CUBIC for as
many bottleneck bandwidths (from 1MB - 1GB) and possibly up to 10GB
capacity.
One of the reasons we clamp the "slow start" is that earlier kernel
version sometimes we had a lot of blackouts when we increase the rate
exponentially. It was not because of network but because of local
queues in the kernel.
Now, TCP stack is quite stable and looks handle the burst following
the slow start.
So, your suggestion to change to make BIC and CUBIC use a standard
slow start quite makes sense to me. Actually, we've been consdering to
adopt "limited slow start" or some new derivatives of "slow start".
For any updates of these protocols, we've been testing extensive set
of testing scenarios. Also, we've been comparing the results between
"slow start", "limited slow start" and our clamping for many cases.
Probably, we will update the result to the latest kernel.
Also, "Documents" for congestion control parameters are a good
suggestion and not much work for us, so we will collaborate with
kernel developers to make them available.
Recently, CUBIC is updated to v2.1 to enhance the scalability of the
protocol and you might want to try to use it.
Thanks,
Sangtae
