I've thought about this a couple of times, scaling the virtual clock rate should be enough for "simple" qdiscs like TBF or HTB, which have a linear relation between time and bandwidth. I haven't really thought about the effects on HFSC yet, on a small scale the relation is non-linear. But this is a different problem from trying to accomodate for link-layer overhead. _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
