It's hard to believe so small change can matter so much here!!!
Great testing!

It seems it's safer to use something below such magic number, and
generally 10% below hardware limit could be the rule.

It also looks like my idea that the first class could get not enough
packets was wrong. It seems it's rather blocked by other classes when
HTB thinks it can lend more.

Anyway, I'm also surprised HTB could be still so exact: congratulations
Martin!

Simon, if I don't miss something, I guess you should be OK with these
last changes in requeuing? The older way did some safety for such
overestimated configs by hiding the real problem, but there were the
costs: cpu etc.

Thanks,
Jarek P.
