That really looks strange to me. I'm able to reproduce the effect caused by 
disabling scatter-gather even on the VM (using iperf3, as usual):

BBR+fq_codel:
sg on:  4.23 Gbits/sec
sg off: 121 Mbits/sec

BBR+fq:
sg on:  6.38 Gbits/sec
sg off: 437 Mbits/sec

Reno+fq_codel:
sg on:  6.74 Gbits/sec
sg off: 1.37 Gbits/sec

Reno+fq:
sg on:  6.53 Gbits/sec
sg off: 1.19 Gbits/sec

Regardless of which congestion algorithm and qdisc is in use, the throughput 
drops, but when BBR is in use, especially with something non-fq, it drops the 
most.
