That would be bad.

Just use fq/pacing, this is way better. Its designed for this usage.

trick is to reduce 'quantum' as you mtu is 273+14 bytes.

QUANTUM=$((273+14))
tc qdisc replace dev eth0 root fq quantum $QUANTUM initial_quantum $QUANTUM

This will _perfectly_ pace packets every 34 ms.

If you share your ethernet device with this 64k destination, and other
uses, then you need a more complex setup with HTB plus two classes, and
fq running at the htb leaf

DEV=eth0

MTU=273
QUANTUM=$(($MTU+14))
DESTINATION=10.246.11.52/32   # change this to meet the network/host

tc qdisc del dev $DEV root &> /dev/null

tc qdisc add dev $DEV handle 1: root htb default 1

tc class add dev $DEV parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 1Gbit
tc class add dev $DEV parent 1: classid 1:2 htb rate 64kbit

tc filter add dev $DEV protocol ip parent 1:0 prio 1 u32 match ip dst $DESTINATION flowid 1:2

tc qdisc add dev $DEV parent 1:1 est 1sec 4sec fq
tc qdisc add dev $DEV parent 1:2 est 1sec 4sec fq quantum $QUANTUM initial_quantum $QUANTUM
