I have to admit I didn't parse this well - still haven't, I think I need to draw. (got a picture?) Where is this part happening in the code (or firmware?) " because each tid - and there are 16 - has it's own fallback flow in case of hash collision on the global flowmap to maintain per-sta-tid queuing" "fallback flow - hash collision on global flowmap" - huh? > With that in mind do you still think 1024 is enough? Can't answer that question without understanding what you said above. I assembled a few of the patches to date (your fq_codel patch, avery's and tims ath9k stuff) and tested them, to no measurable effect, against linus's tree a day or two back. I also acquired an ath10k card - would one of these suit? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B011SIMFR8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00
