The RED test uses a pair of TBF shapers. The first to get predictably-sized stream of traffic, and second to get a 100% saturated chokepoint. To this chokepoint it injects individual packets. Because the chokepoint is saturated, these additional packets go straight to the backlog. This allows the test to check RED behavior across various queue sizes. The shapers are rated at 1Gbps, for historical reasons (before mlxsw supported TBF offload, the test used port speed to create the chokepoints). Machines with a low-power CPU may have trouble consistently generating 1Gbps of traffic, and the test then spuriously fails. Instead, drop the rate to 200Mbps (Spectrum has a guaranteed shaper rate granularity of 200Mbps, so anything lower is not guaranteed to work well). Because that means fewer packets will be mirrored in the ECN-mark test, adjust the passing condition accordingly.
