Well... See LARTC at http://lartc.org/...
Netfilter is a packet filter, which is suitable for filtering network
flows.
tc is a traffic control utility, which is suitable for controling
traffic behaviour, so bytelimiting purposes.
Netfilter's limit match is _not_ suitable for traffic shaping, as said
in Filtergin HOWTO.
