Al,

Just following up on the quick discussion on the live meeting at IETF-83
regarding the creation of a representative the IMIX:

	A cntrl+f search against CAIDA didn't turn up any matches.
Perhaps this got lost in the editing

A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories. This draft is a work item of the Benchmarking Methodology
Working Group of the IETF.

	Title           : IMIX Genome: Specification of variable packet
sizes 
for additional testing
	Author(s)       : Al Morton
	Filename        : draft-ietf-bmwg-imix-genome-01.txt
	Pages           : 9
	Date            : 2012-01-08

    Benchmarking Methodologies have always relied on test conditions
with
    constant packet sizes, with the goal of understanding what network
    device capability has been tested.  Tests with constant packet size
    reveal device capabilities but differ significantly from the
    conditions encountered in operational deployment, and so additional
    tests are sometimes conducted with a mixture of packet sizes, or
    "IMIX".  The mixture of sizes a networking device will encounter is
    highly variable and depends on many factors.  An IMIX suited for one
    networking device and deployment will not be appropriate for
another.
    However, the mix of sizes may be known and the tester may be asked
to
    augment the fixed size tests.  To address this need, and the
    perpetual goal of specifying repeatable test conditions, this draft
    defines a way to specify the exact repeating sequence of packet
sizes
    from the usual set of fixed sizes, and other forms of mixed size
    specification.
