Hi everyone,

Our team at EXFO is working on adapting the TCP Throughput Testing methodology described in RFC6349 to QUIC. We just published a draft that can be found at https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-corre-quic-throughput-testing
The draft follows the same organization as the RFC6349 and discuss what should be changed to support QUIC Throughput Testing.
The methodology is interested in measuring the achievable QUIC throughput and efficiency of a managed network when the connection is at an equilibrium. Although, it could also be used for un-managed networks.

We are particularly looking for comments on the way we use the protocol to measure the network's QUIC Throughput but also feedback from potential users of such a test.
For instance, our draft closely follows the RFC6349 methodology, but since QUIC introduces new features, it would be interesting to gauge interest in extending the methodology to test features such as 0-RTT effect.

Comments would be gladly appreciated, so let us know what you think.

Best regards,


Kevin Corre, PhD.
