Subject: Sensitivity of TFRC throughput equation wrt to changes of RTT
Date: Fri, 13 Apr 2007 12:03:02 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200704131303.03072@strip-the-willow> (raw)

The comment by Dave brought me back to check what a change of
a factor of 10 does to the throughput in TFRC. 

RFC 3448 gives in section 8 the following alternative format
of the throughput equation (which is directly responsible for
the alllowed sending rate X):

              s
      X =  --------
           R * f(p)

This shows that the dependence is reciprocal. Thus using an RTT
which differs by a factor of 10 to account for in-stack processing
results an a throughput reduction of factor 10.

In other words, 90 Mbits/sec becomes 9 Mbits/sec.
