What is this tool?

Same for me, however I`m having a 1Gbit cable modem, but with the WRT32X with SQM 500Mbit down is a bit of the maximum it can do.Stupid thing in my country is that it's either 1Gbit, 200Mbit, or 100Mbit.... no 500 or 600Mbit (at least for the provider I prefer). However, WRT32X is pretty awesome for such an old device, and very stable.
Yea with SQM Cake/LLA all set 500Mbits will almost fully saturate CPU0 on the WRT32X. I'm running the GL-MT6000 now and it does about 850Mbits with the same SQM settings. I think to fully hit 1Gbit with SQM you still need an x86-64 (N100) or maybe the NanoPi R4S.

Wow, 850Mbits is already very nice! Thanks for sharing, appreciate it.
The r4s would be my preference, but it doesn't suit my needs unfortunately. The GL does. But I`ll probably wait until the r6s is supported, although that might take some time still.
FYI I have the r4s, and it's "marginal" for gigabit. routing at 900+ mbs is possible with some cpu affinity tweaks, but only in 1 direction at a time.
There's a little bit of headroom for cake over it, but barely. And if you start to load it in both dl/ul, with flent for example, cpu troubles start, which is sad because multiple flows is what's cake is for...
And if you need any kind of tunneling, for example v4 in v6 with map-e like my isp does, then the extra cpu needed makes cake counterproductive unless you're willing to go below 500m... thankfully with my usage it's fine without cake.
