I'm using the Seeed Odyssey https://www.seeedstudio.com/ODYSSEY-X86J4105864-p-4447.html It will shape inbound using cake (piece of cake) at 1Gbps. Dual Intel i210 controllers. I'm running stable OpenWRT, although I needed to use ToT to get a UEFI boot setup for it that would work with the internal eMMC. But it has hilariously more storage and memory that I need for a border router. I _can_ completely utilize a single core with cake on inbound traffic, so I'd like to sort out multiqueue (needs a newer kernel version with a newer driver from Intel), but I haven't bothered, since it seems to handle things well, and I rarely sustain 1Gbps downloads. I use the most aggressive ACK filtering setting with cake due to the 30:1 asymmetry on the link.
