The simulation feeds bursty mixed traffic through a router buffer under tail-drop, RED, and CoDel policies, plotting the resulting queueing latency over time to show bufferbloat's latency spikes against each AQM scheme's proactive dropping behavior.
Select a queue management policy and traffic burst intensity, then run the simulation to watch the buffer fill and drain while a live latency graph compares delay spikes across policies.
Policy selector for tail-drop, RED, or CoDel, burst intensity slider, run/reset controls with a live latency graph
Researcher Jim Gettys helped popularize the term bufferbloat around 2010 after discovering that his own home network could suffer multiple seconds of latency during a large upload, even though the link itself had plenty of spare bandwidth.
