Buffer Bloat and network performance

Posted on December 7, 2010 by Steve

This post is really well written and should probably be required reading for network geeks.

I think it might explain some of the problems I was seeing before I dropped my DSL provider and moved to Knology cable, which I’ve been mostly happy with (Their DNS servers are slow, so I use dyndns).

    It would be great if you could enable the full contents of posts into the RSS feed. It makes reading your blog from an offline reader much easier.
