Hi Tom, I just tried simple queues and I can use download and upload limits in the same queue which is simpler config and the winbox graphs could be quite handy.
One thing I do notice is that the upload speed test is behaving like a policer whereas the queue tree appeared to be shaped on upload – I guess that is because the simple queue is only acting in one place.

I have tested using Queue Trees with separate download and upload parent PCQ queues with individual upload/download default queues for each customer – I need to be able to provide guaranteed minimums to each customer when I contend them together so that I can maximise the bandwidth I have available to the site. Will the child queues use different cores or would it be driven by the parent queue? I will have a look at setting this up using simple queues.

I have no intention of running full table in these as I have invested in Juniper MX routers for this job but as a CE or PE the CCR looks a very good option. Our service is generally multi-tenant buildings and parks so the traffic shaping capabilities are certainly interesting if I can work this feature directly into the CE or PE.
