We are making significant progress with CAKE & fq_codel in the WISP & and fiber markets as a middlebox. See Preseem, Bequant, and LibreQos.io. Still best to get these native on the CPE as Mikrotik and many many others have one.
I wonder how well these would work on the GFW?
In large routers at ISPs, the best tool that is likely to be available is WFQ, with a limited number of hash buckets available. Likely WFQ will bundle many other flows together in the same bucket with a Brutal flow, so Brutal will still cause collareral damage if it encounters congestion.
