Hey Brett,
Here's a paper that shows you don't need buffers equal to bandwidth*delay to get near capacity: http://www.cs.bu.edu/~matta/Papers/hstcp-globecom04.pdf (I'm not endorsing it. Just pointing out it out as a datapoint.)
Quick glance makes me believe the S and D nodes are equal bandwidth, but only R1-R2 bandwidth is explicitly stated.S1, D1, Sn, Dn are only ever mentioned in the topology. If Sender is same or lower rate than Destination, then we really shouldn't need almost any buffering. Issue should only come when Sender is significantly higher rate than Destination and network is not limiting them. -- ++ytti
