Sounds about right for a single TCP session (iperf) and a 30Mbps policer. Have you seen the following article from Cisco with discusses the differences between shaping and policing? Personally, I really dislike using policing on TCP traffic for sub-native speeds because it results in a lot of drops as the clients send bursty traffic. I would prefer to implement shaping, but very few Cisco boxes support that on a budget.
