blk-throttle does allow bursts so the iops might go over the set limit
for a short period.  Over time, it shouldn't be over the set limit.

Looks like you were hitting the natural bandwidth limit of the device.

I don't know how the test was run but consistently going over the set
limit isn't the expected behavior.

Thanks.
