Questions:

I have two questions for Rate Limiter:

    1. Why the HW rate limit is diabled?
    1. What is the point of setting rate limit under SW?

HW disabled

perftest/src/perftest_resources.c

Line 2821 in 91fadb5

fprintf(stderr, "\x1b[31mThe QP failed to accept HW rate limit, providing SW rate limit \x1b[0m\n");
