Hello, a new article has been posted to the APNIC Blog on "Delay Tolerant Networking Performance": https://blog.apnic.net/2024/03/25/delay-tolerant-networking-performance/ The article specifically addresses performance aspects of the Licklider Transmission Protocol (LTP) based on two popular DTN implementations with complimentary use cases. The article highlights the performance increases observed for using larger LTP segment sizes even when lower layer fragmentation is necessary to accommodate the larger sizes. The article finally includes a new service for signaling lower-layer QoS parameters for networks that support DTN overlays. This article has important implications for IPv4 and IPv6 Internetworking in that it provides evidence that larger packet sizes have significantly beneficial implications for performance even when IP fragmentation is invoked. It suggests that better support for large packets through larger link and path MTUs as well as properly functioning IP fragmentation are important for the future of the Internet. The new Firewall and Service Tickets (FAST) service should also provide significant QoS benefits.
