Honestly, you cannot draw that conclusion on cake yet. The new
firmware forwarded at something like 35% better rates than the old.[1]
So if you can show a dsireports speedtest on your hardware, on
fq_codel, also... that would be confirmation we are winning on cake on
your hardware.

[1] I have great hope that the new FIB stuff in 4.0 and later will
also do magic for forwarding rates.
