I skimmed the paper, but I could not determine what TCP congestion control method they were testing against. Given the stall time, I expect that it was not BBR (which is the congestion control used by QUIC). If you improve TCP's congestion control and can also control the client TCP stack, most of BBR's advantages over TCP disappear.
- matsur 4y agoQUIC doesn't imply BBR as congestion control. eg. Our (Cloudflare's) QUIC implementation supports multiple algorithms. https://blog.cloudflare.com/cubic-and-hystart-support-in-quiche/ https://blog.cloudflare.com/cubic-and-hystart-support-in-qui...
