Attached you can find a "snapshot" of the queue view of pftop (only part of the queue is shown). As you can see, even if all queue have similar assigned bandwidths (6400 and 2000 bps), there is a single queue with a GREAT amount of traffic (wh10_i) that monopolize ALL the bandwidth! There ar

Fair distribution of borrowed bandwidth with a lot of users

I have a problem creating a policy to make a fair use of available bandwidth in a situation with a lot of potential users. We have a certain number of users, each one with a committed bandwidth of X or Y. We setup a queue system with an HFSC queue for each user, with a bandwidth ("linkshare" p
