36// The purpose of BandwidthSmoother is to smooth out bandwidth
37// estimations so that 'trstate' messages can be triggered when we
38// are "sure" there is sufficient bandwidth. To avoid frequent fluctuations,
39// we take a slightly pessimistic view of our bandwidth. We only increase
40// our estimation when we have sampled bandwidth measurements of values
41// at least as large as the current estimation * percent_increase
42// for at least time_between_increase time. If a sampled bandwidth
43// is less than our current estimation we immediately decrease our estimation
44// to that sampled value.
45// We retain the initial bandwidth guess as our current bandwidth estimation
46// until we have received (min_sample_count_percent * samples_count_to_average)
47// number of samples. Min_sample_count_percent must be in range [0, 1].
