OpenWRT 18.06.1 Throughput

Hi,
I was able to easily install the x86 version of OpenWRT on the Fitlet LAN (6700T) unit. It seems to work fine but it has a throughput limit of about 300-320Mbps. In watching TOP i'm only seeing about 25% SIRQ CPU usage. I increased TDP to 10w and reduced core count. But throughput seems to not change. Wondering if there are any other ideas on what to try. It seems like there is performance headroom but not sure what could be the limiter.

I know most folks use pfsense but OpenWRT is a great option for those interested in Cake/SQM for bandwidth management.
