They actually do have a per-subscriber model now with their virtualized
product. I'm working with Procera on some configurations for this for
the WISP market right. Feel free to reach out to me directly if anyone
is interested in learning more.

OK, I think Procera and Sandvine both have a per user cost (maybe a
couple dollars per user) and Procera has a cost for purchasing
upfront. My box which can do a gig of traffic cost $18,000 with the
first year of signature updates and it is like $2500 annually after that.

Kurt,
We use PPPoE/Radius to set basic Queues on the Access Servers but
want to do shaping at an application level. Ntop reports are
showing an increasing number of things getting out of control.
Windows updates %#@?! for one.

Are you are just looking to shape general traffic to a client
(like give someone a 1.5Mbps plan) then you could use Mikrotik
and simple queues which is very in-expensive. If you want to do
some shaping on an application like only streaming or Windows
Updates and stuff like that then that's where things start to get
expensive. I am using the Procera myself for that and although I
havn't tried any of the other brands you mention I am very happy
with the Procera.
