me? nothing. i requested this test from a reporter and he uses just free 
/ top. so there is a error tollerance.

but it shows a significant difference between cake and fq_codel etc. 
cake is doing a OOM at the end

for the full report including config screenshots see this 
https://svn.dd-wrt.com/ticket/6798#comment:14. it shows also the qos 
setup which i can use to reproduce and to
print out the full tc ruleset if required (which it surelly is for you). 
if you want i will recreate this setup and send the tc rules on this list
