I'm very jealous of such a connection.
I'll make do with my 50/20

I understand. But note that until 6 days ago my bandwidth was 8 / .8 Mbps ! Then QoS was definitely a must.

I truly find this amazing to reach such speeds and 4 or 5 ms round trip times! It's like being in a giant LAN :-)

Since when / which version is Smart Queue Management implemented in Gargoyle?

None, that is an OpenWrt only QOS strategy

ARRGH! I misunderstood then. I thought Gargoyle was built on top of OpenWRT core.
So does that mean that I should implement some basic QoS rules to preserve some bandwidth for the needed protocols (VoIP, etc. ) in case of big downloads being processed? At least establish priorities (Fast / normal / slow) ?

It is, but there are differences. QoS is one of them.
In theory you could get sqm going, but there's no instructions.

Only if your line is suffering from that issue.
The default QoS settings should ensure equal bandwidth usage for all clients. Doesn't need to be more complex than that usually.
