Which > alignes with the data you presented at ICCSG, correct? i don't know what is common and what is not, but my understanding is that here, a dsl access network is typically quite fast optical down to the dslam, which provides dsl access to large number of customers over their dedicated coppers. on the dslam you have exactly the dslam manufacturers default magic number of fifo queuing, which is most likely 64KB or 40 packets regardless of the customer sla. this is likely to be the first place where queuing occurs after the servers uplink, given the 'valley free' characteristic etc. cable network has a similar story, the amount of cpe served by a single cmts is large so cmts will sit in a very fast network, so the queuing takes place there. for wwan (gprs, edge, 3g, etc.), my experience of queuing delays suggests 128KB is typical here (worst case queuing delay beyond 10 seconds at 60kbps). perhaps modem pools aside, i have yet to see the access network were too little buffering is a problem. i have been hoping for quite a while that the buffering would go down to improve interactive performance during bulk transfers but it just does not seem to happen so i have given up hope. instead, i have started hoping they keep the defaults because bandwidths are rising. above 10Mbps, 64KB is quite tolerable.
