Summary


Source Buffer Management

In the past decade there has been growing awareness about the harmful effects of bufferbloat in the network, and there has been good work on developments like L4S to address that problem. However, bufferbloat on the sender itself remains a significant additional problem, which has not received similar attention. The Source Buffer Management (SBM) work aims to develop techniques and guidance for host networking software to avoid network traffic suffering unnecessary delays caused by excessive buffering at the sender. These improvements should be broadly applicable across all datagram and transport protocols (UDP, TCP, QUIC, etc.) on all operating systems. the intention of this mailing list is to have a focused discussion on the problem and potential solutions/ design. The outcome likely to be pursued in TSVWG, if the this gets adopted in the WG then discussions will have in the tsvwg mailing list.
