Hmm, maybe UDP isn't doing as well as I thought.

Playing with packit doing this:

packit -t UDP -d 1.99.99.1 -D 32432 -S 4500 -i enp0s25 -h -p "0x 00 11 22 33 44 55 66 77 88 99 00 11 22 33 44 55 66 77 88 99 00 11 22 33 44 55 66 77 88 99" -c 5

I have played with the source and destination port numbers, and so far
I have only managed to hit queues 0, 1 and 2 (mostly 0 and 2).  No port
number I have tried has made it hit any other queue.  That is weird.
Making random changes ought to distribute more than that.  And changing
the hkey certainly ought to make a difference, and so far it doesn't
seem to for these packets (I know I saw icmp move around just fine before
when changing the hkey).
