Run pfctl -vsq, it should print all the queues you have defined, and
the counters pkts/bytes should increase when packets are assigned to
queues (if they aren't, check pfctl -vsr to make sure your queue rules
match). When pfctl -vsq shows dropped pkts/bytes, ALTQ is working and
dropping packets. One relatively simple application is described on

  http://www.benzedrine.cx/ackpri.html

If you can reproduce the results of this test, at least priq is working,
and you can then try other schedulers.
