Oh, goodie. I was puzzled as to why the "fast" fq_codel queue was at
6ms instead of under 2ms, given the BQL size and traffic load.
You'd think that data centers and distros would be falling over themselves
to switch to sch_fq or sch_fq_codel to get 3x less latency than pfifo_fast for
sparse flows, at this point. It's just a sysctl away...

Retaining the pfifo_fast data is important as a baseline. Not a lot of
point to graphing
it further tho.
I think you will find pie's behavior at these speeds bemusing.

(question to list) Are there any options to tcpdump or the kernel to
make it more possible to capture full packet payloads (64k) without
loss at these speeds? tshark?
(you might be able to get somewhere with port mirroring off the switch
and a separate
capture device.)
