The main difference that’s probably responsible for this is Cake’s integrated deficit-mode shaper, which is more accurate on short timescales than the more typical token-bucket shaper that fq_codel is used with.

There’s also some difference in the Codel implementation which might or might not be relevant, specifically in the calculation of “count” after a relatively brief exit from dropping state.
