Keep in mind by default fq_codel uses 1024 hash bins, so worst case
your GUI needs to display quite a lot of units; on the other hand many flows
are really short, and the "tc -s class show" has little "hysteresis" that is
once a hash bin runs empty, fq_codel will not report data for that bin. (Which
is fine as empty buckets tend to be not very informative, but when using this
output to feed a display tool now your sampling/query rate might be too coarse
and not show ephemeral buckets).

I think keeping the full 5-tuple input to the hash function might be
problematic, but "reducing" that to the 10bit bucket-ID should be lossy enough,
no?

P.S.: for cake luci statistics has grown a module that plots the outputs of `tc
-s qdisc` for cake instances over time. Sure that is not the per-flow or per
hash-bin resolution, but for quickly seeing whether there is on-going high
level marking/dropping it should suffice...
