Subtract an additional 5kbps of the bitrate when backing off.

Traditionally, we'd back off to 85% of the measured throughput in response to an overuse. However, this backoff doesn't appear to be sufficient to drain the queues in some low-bitrate scenarios, and the problem has gotten a bit worse with the RobustThroughputEstimator. (The new estimate looks more stable. The old estimator had more variation, the lowest points were lower, causing backoffs to lower rates.)

With this change, we back off to 0.85*thoughput-5kbps. The difference is negligible except at low bitrates.

WebRTC is a free, open software project that provides browsers and mobile applications with Real-Time Communications (RTC) capabilities via simple APIs. The WebRTC components have been optimized to best serve this purpose.

Our mission: To enable rich, high-quality RTC applications to be developed for the browser, mobile platforms, and IoT devices, and allow them all to communicate via a common set of protocols.

The WebRTC initiative is a project supported by Google, Mozilla and Opera, amongst others.

Development
