Abstract
Internet router buffers are used to accommodate packets
that arrive in bursts and to maintain high utilization of the
egress link. Such buffers can lead to large queueing delays.
Recently, several papers have suggested that it may, under
general circumstances, be possible to achieve high utilisation
with small network buffers. In this paper we review these
recommendations. Serious issues are reported that question
the utility of these recommendations.
