I gathered a bunch of stats from the Scale conference this year
http://lang.hm/scale/2015/stats/
this includes very frequent dumps of transmission speed data per MAC address per
AP

Thanks for pointing out horst.
I've been trying wireshark io graphs such as:
retry comparison: wlan.fc.retry==0 (line) to wlan.fc.retry==1 (impulse)
beacon delays: wlan.fc.type_subtype==0x08 AVG frame.time_delta_displayed
I've uploaded my pcap files, netperf-wrapper results and lanforge script
reports which have some aggregate graphs below all of the pie charts. The
pcap files with 64sta in the name correspond to the script reports.

I'll upload more once I try the qdisc suggestions and I'll generate
comparison plots.

Using horst I've discovered that the major reason our WiFi network
sucks is because 90% of the packets are sent at the 6mbit rate.
Most of the rest show up in the 12 and 24mbit zone with a tiny
fraction of them using the higher MCS rates.
Trying to couple the radiotap info with the packet decryption to
discover the sources of those low-bit rate packets is where I've
been running into difficulty. I can see the what but I haven't
had much luck on the why.
I totally agree with you that tools other than wireshark for
analyzing this seem to be non-existent.
Using the following filter in Wireshark should get you all that 6Mbps
traffic:
radiotap.datarate == 6
Then it's pretty easy to dig into what those are (by wifi frame-type, at
least). At my network, that's mostly broadcast traffic (AP beacons and
whatnot), as the corporate wifi has been set to use that rate as the
broadcast rate.
without capturing the WPA exchange, the contents of the data frames can't
be seen, of course.
