Netanalyzer's metrics are wrong when used with a fair queuing or codel
based system. They use a single udp flood to measure the "queue" when
in the "fq" portion of fq_codel there are 1024 by default, and when
codel kicks in, queue depth is reduced eventually to a level that tcp
would expect, but has no effect on a single udp flood.

Use a ping vs a big upload as your test, or the rrul test, after
setting your up/download appropriately.
