I'm a little bit worried that this might reset the estimator too often. Stefan
has a CL up that removes old_estimator and the "if (!in_experiment_) {...}" code
(https://codereview.webrtc.org/2749803002/). If we can land his CL first we
wouldn't need this hack.

[michaelt, 2017/04/11 11:04:33]

Ok the hack is removed.
