Subject: HTB/HSFC shaping precision
Hi 2 all again
This is not a bug report this time :-)
Just it is very interesting question, about using Linux "shaping" technologies
in serious jobs.
What i realised few days ago, many ISP's set on their STM-1(155520000 bits/s)
links (over Cisco) packet buffer/queue 40 packets(for example).
It means 103680 pps with 1500 byte packets, and if buffer is only 40
packets, it means it require at least 0.3ms scheduler precision? Otherwise i
can have buffer overflow and as result packetloss(what is much worse than
delay in most of situations).
What i am interested - to utilise such links nearby 100%. So anything not
precise will kill idea.
Thats important, cause price for links in my area is about $1000-$1500 Mbit/s,
and just 1% lost/not utilised on STM-1 is up to $2325/USD lost per month.
I have to count also overhead, LAN jitter, and etc.
As far as i test, on HFSC if i set dmax 1ms-10ms it works much better (i am
talking about precision) than HTB with quantum 1514 (it is over ethernet).
Anybody have ideas what is the precision of bandwidth shaping in HFSC/HTB?
