“…All are based on TCP and so share its many deficiencies. Indeed, evaluations of MPTCP variants [13][14][15] reveal rate-instability and unfairness, inefficient network utilization, and sometimes even worse performance than (single-path) TCP. Our aim is to satisfy the requirements from multipath congestion control within a design that addresses these issues.…”

“…for MPTCP, and many others, MPTCP often exhibits bad performance. This is not surprising; the leading MPTCP variants [38,51] are all extensions of a three-decades old congestion control scheme, namely, single-path TCP Reno, and consequently, inherit TCP's well-documented performance issues, including inability to adapt gracefully to changing network conditions, bad reaction to noncongestion loss, bufferbloat, RTT unfairness, and more [7,13,15].…”

Multipath transport, as embodied in MPTCP, is deployed to improve throughput and reliability in mobile and residential access networks, with additional use-cases including spreading load in data centers and WANs. However, MPTCP is fundamentally tied to TCP Reno's legacy AIMD algorithm, and significantly lags behind the performance of modern single-path designs. Consequently, MPTCP fails to achieve high performance in many real-world environments. We present MPCC, a high-performance multipath congestion control architecture. To achieve our combined goals of fairness and high performance in challenging environments, MPCC employs online convex optimization (a.k.a. online learning). In experiments with a kernel implementation on emulated and live networks, MPCC significantly outperforms MPTCP.
