Hi guys,

 

I have installed bbr v3 on my linux (6.13.7) based ubuntu machine and today I tested it by sending a single TCP stream in Upload test. The network is wired 100 Mbps to the “linux 6.11.0-19 generic” server running netperf server.

 

Below is the output I am getting. I repeated the tests but same results.  BBR v3 upload is shown via green graph and it drops after regular intervals, any idea why it is doing so

?

The result with Cubic as congestion control is below:  the cubic stream is going smooth in UPLOAD test without any periodic drops.

 

 

Regards,

Ahsan

Hi,

yes, it's a core feature of BBR to measure the RTT without queuing
delay. Every 5s, a BBRv3 flow goes into ProbeRTT and reduces its
amount of inflight data to 0.5 of the estimated BDP. This
typically lasts only 200ms.

Regards,
Roland
