[e2e] Testing TCP-friendliness at routers

Hi all,

Yet another question:

The great floyd/fall paper "promoting the use of end-to-end
congestion control in the internet" describes how to test
for TCP-friendliness at a router in a fairly simple manner.
Limitations of this test are also explained.

Is this done in practice? Are there any results? Analyses?
I suppose there should be some reports from experiments
with this or similar techniques out there somewhere...

Cheers,
Michael
