Routers with small buffers: impact of packet size on performance for mixed TCP and UDP traffic.
Recent research results on buffer sizing challenged the widely used assumption that routers should buffer millions of packets. These new results suggest that when smooth Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) traffic goes through a single tiny buffer of size O(logW), then close-to-peak throughput can b...
