•With single flow & empty
network:
–Can saturate 2.5 Gbps with
standard TCP & jumbos
–Can saturate 1Gbps with new
stacks & 1500B frame or with standard & jumbos
•With production network,
–FAST can take a while to get
going
–Once going, FAST TCP with one
stream looks good compared to
multi-stream RENO
–FAST can back down early
compared to RENO
–More work needed on
fairness
•Scalable
–Does not look as good vs.
multi-stream Reno
