For CoDel-ECN however, SCReAM runs in normal ECN mode with a beta of 0.8 (=20% reduction on CWND for each congestion event) [BB] In your previous work, in order to get early L4S ECN marking, you used a virtual queue in the network draining at a little less than the rate given by the scheduler. Am I right that you're not doing that here? In the L4S case you show, when the video is running at about half the rate in the CoDel case (which is presumably closer to that available from the scheduler), one would have thought it would get very little ECN marking. But I notice it's getting frequent little spikes of marking. Is that due to I-frames causing bursts or something? What if it wasn't getting those spikes of marks (e.g. using sthg like x264 to spread the I-frames over time)? A random thought: Could the video use the Classic queue as a scavenger service to fill in extra coding layer(s) whenever bandwidth is available?
