Congestion control algorithm - and congestion window sizing/tuning - plays a not-insignificant role in throughput, especially when comparing a 15KiB object vs. a 1MiB object. It's often _more_ outsized for those "medium sized" objects, as too small a window won't scale up by the time the transfer completes in some cases.

In other words: this is a good post, but the caveats around congestion control algorithm are a little understated w.r.t. the benchmarks.
