As far as I can tell, fq_codel's throughput is about 10% lower on
100mbit in one direction, while being higher in the other. For 10mbit
fq_codel shows higher throughput throughout?

Not apart from what's in mainline (3.9.9 kernel). The latency-inducing
box is after the bottleneck, though, so perhaps it has something to do
with that? Some interaction between netem and the ethernet link?

Not on my current setup, sorry. Also, I only did these tests because I
happened to be at my lab anyway yesterday. Not going back again for a
while, so further tests are out for the time being, I'm afraid...
