You are pretty much out of luck there until 4.4.18 when you can specify
a <burst> size for IN-BANDWIDTH. Until then, the actual rate will be

For troubleshooting TC problems, we really need to see the output of
'shorewall dump' collected during a slow transfer. That's the only way
to know for sure what is going on.
