I installed the updated package on a 19.07.4 box running cake, and QoS 
performance went down the tubes.
Last night it locked up completely while attempting to stream.

See the PingPlots others have posted to this forum thread, mine look similar, 
went from constant sub 50ms to very spiky, then some loss, loss increasing, and 
if high traffic, lock-up.

load is low, sirq is low, so box does not seem stressed.

Any reason Cake would be sensitive to a dnsmasq bug?

Anyway, heads-up to wait before deploying the update, A new one should be 
forthcoming.

Thanks,

Jonathan Foulkes
