You could implement QoS on the Cisco, however you'd still have traffic 
hitting the internal interface at a higher rate- so it would depend on 
your architecture as to if that would suffice.  Otherwise, you may need to 
also do QoS on the last oubound hop before the firewall.

If the Web server is critical and you're at the end of a single link, you 
really should start making a case to colocate it somewhere with better 
bandwidth, which would solve your availability problem and add 
significantly to the reliability of the server.  As always, there's a cost 
associated with it.
