The RRUL graph shows 4 simultaneous flows. The total of 4 flows
averaging 7Mb/s is 28Mb/s :).
I think it's more obvious when you know what the legend means. The flows
have different service markings (which may or may not have any effect).
BE = "Best effort" (neither high nor low priority)
BK = Background
EF = "Expedited forwarding"
I think CS5 is another high priority mark. The abbreviation doesn't
mean anything specific, it's just how it's coded really... it's a bit
of a swamp, because there's no standard that works internet-wide, even
for a low priority mark. IIRC there's one mark that ends up being
treated as low priority in one "standard" and high priority in another.
