So this means for a client the send queue size is one and for the

Did I get this right ? since whenever a client forwards a packet
unless the previous packet has been sent out it cannot insert its
own packet in any case right ?
I think you're a bit confused; clients don't forward packets, they
generate them. FORWARD_COUNT defines the number of forwarding packets
a node can have in its queue. That is, packets it received from
another node. CLIENT_COUNT defines the number of generated packets it
can have in its queue. That is, the number of packets a higher layer
has requested to send to a collection point.
If a sending client wants a queue deeper than 1, then they can always
put their own queue on top of its single entry in the CTP
transmission queue. But the forwarding queue allocation discipline
means that this client gets at most 1/Nth of the bandwidth.
