Setting the hard transfer rate/limit on the rsync side is not what I need. I
want my boxes to be able to use whole available bandwidth anytime. I mean if
other services need some bandwitdh they just get it with higher priority and my
boxes always can use *the rest*. If there is a quiet it the network my boxes
can use the whole highway.

Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work as expected. Bandwidth seems to be shared
roughly equally with other traffic (tested with pushing data (netcat) through
VPN in the same time).
I would appreciate your advice or any clues on what I have done wrong. Thank
you.

FQ-CoDel may be useful for ensuring fair sharing of bandwidth. I use it
on some bandwidth constrained links and it works quite nicely at
ensuring that bandwidth is fairly distributed. I've found that adjusting
the quantum level to around 300 is nice for ensuring interactive
applications remain responsive/low latency, by prioritizing smaller
packets over larger bulk transfer packets.
