I would be careful with setting queue-limit to 100 percent as default in all 
policy-maps. We had an issue on me3600cx where applying queue-limit percent 100 
to one 1G port would cause drops on other 1G and 10G ports (though it fixed 
drops on that particular 1G interface we were seeing without queue-limit 
applied). We had to lower the number to 50 to get rid of the drops on all of 
the interfaces (was hadling the case through TAC).

Spyros mentioned about over-buffering. I don't see any problem with this, with 
"queue-limit percent 100" the IOS resource manager will allocate more buffers 
to the port as requried (as throughput
increases) and de-allocated them when they aren't need, otherwise you couldn't 
have more than one traffic class on the entire switch with "queue-limit percent 
100" configured. The idea/approach I use is that the command can be applied 
everywhere and just let the ASIC handle it.
This has removed tail-drops for us without any further issues or repercussions.

Cheers,
James.
