I joined the stream, and was able to ask about the throughput they were getting with CAKE on their hardware.  This is just for the "Route 10" rather than their APs, and they reported getting about 2.5Gbps throughput with CAKE enabled. They do correctly note that the hardware-accelerated forwarding path is disabled for the interface where CAKE is turned on.

Supporting 2.5Gbps is pretty good I think, and should be sufficient to handle all practical Internet subscriptions that are likely to require bufferbloat mitigation.  For comparison, on the same call they claimed about 800Mbps throughput for acting as a WireGuard tunnel endpoint.
