Well, it wasn't. For example, I neglected to mention that I have to actually use at least 2 TCP streams (but have tried up to 20) in order to not run into the gbit link limit on the AP :-) > I was curious: > > o What's the sender's qdisc configuration?

Sure, though I'm not sure my ss is recent enough for what you had in mind - if not I'll have to rebuild it (it was iproute2-ss190708). https://p.sipsolutions.net/3e515625bf13fa69.txt Note there are 4 connections (iperf is being used) but two are control and two are data. Easy to see the difference really :-) > o Would you be able to share a headers-only tcpdump pcap trace? I'm not sure how to do headers-only, but I guess -s100 will work. https://johannes.sipsolutions.net/files/he-tcp.pcap.xz Note that this is from a different run than the ss stats. johannes
