perf would be interesting but note that multiq still uses the root qdisc
lock which you original stated you were trying to avoid.

mq and mqprio are really the only two existing qdiscs that work well for
performance with small packet sizes and multiqueue nics at least in my
experience/setup with these kinds of micro-benchmarks.
