Subject: Correctly calculating overheads on unknown connections

Hi,
I am looking to figure out the most fool proof way to calculate stab
overheads for ADSL/VDSL connections.
ppp0 Link encap:Point-to-Point Protocol
inet addr:81.149.38.69 P-t-P:81.139.160.1 Mask:255.255.255.255
UP POINTOPOINT RUNNING NOARP MULTICAST MTU:1492 Metric:1
RX packets:17368223 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
TX packets:12040295 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
RX bytes:17420109286 (16.2 GiB) TX bytes:3611007028 (3.3 GiB)
I am setting a longer txqueuelen as I am not currently using any fair
queuing (buffer bloat issues with sfq)
The connection is a BT Infinity FTTC VDSL connection synced at
80mbit/20mbit. The modem is connected directly to the ethernet port on
a server running a slightly tweaked HFSC setup that you folks helped me
set up in July - back when I was on ADSL. I am still running pppoe I
believe from my server.
The largest ping packet that I can fit out onto the wire is 1464 bytes:
# ping -c 2 -s 1464 -M do google.com
PING google.com (31.55.166.216) 1464(1492) bytes of data.
1472 bytes from 31.55.166.216: icmp_seq=1 ttlX time\x11.7 ms
1472 bytes from 31.55.166.216: icmp_seq=2 ttlX time\x11.9 ms
# ping -c 2 -s 1465 -M do google.com
PING google.com (31.55.166.212) 1465(1493) bytes of data.
From host81-149-38-69.in-addr.btopenworld.com (81.149.38.69) icmp_seq=1
Frag needed and DF set (mtu = 1492)
From host81-149-38-69.in-addr.btopenworld.com (81.149.38.69) icmp_seq=1
Frag needed and DF set (mtu = 1492)
Based on this I believe overhead should be set to 28, however with 28
set as my overhead and hfsc ls m2 20000kbit ul m2 20000kbit I seem to be
loosing about 1.5mbit of upload...

Am I calculating overhead incorrectly?
