[LARTC] again: HTB - I can't stand it any longer HELP ME

[josh <josh876@poczta.onet.pl>]

sorry for previous post. I have no idea what was the reason :-(. I am sure it was set to 'plain-text', but I have changed email anyway...

hi there!

For weeks I am trying to set my network in such a way:

server (linux) is connected through ppp0 to internet. There is MLDonkey
running on that and it is also Internet default gateway for my LAN. I want
as fast access to the Internet as there would be no MLDonkey running - I
mean:

-- I want MLDonkey to be using ONLY IDLE BANDWIDTH --

After reading HTB manual I configured it in this way:

---------------------------
tc qdisc add dev imq0 root handle 1: htb default 10
tc class add dev imq0 parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 70kbit

tc class add dev imq0 parent 1:1 classid 1:10 htb rate 70kbit prio 0
tc class add dev imq0 parent 1:1 classid 1:11 htb rate 10kbit ceil 70kbit
prio 2

tc filter add dev imq0 protocol ip parent 1:0 prio 1 u32 \
match ip sport 4662 0xffff flowid 1:11
tc filter add dev imq0 protocol ip parent 1:0 prio 1 u32 \
match ip dport 4662 0xffff flowid 1:11

ip link set imq0 up
---------------------------

So I want MLdonkey to be using low-priority class, becouse I want have fast
connection when I am browsing WWW or doing anything else.

Here you can see output of
tc -s -d class show dev imq0
when there is only MLDonkey running:

Looking at class.txt it seems it should be working very well, but it is not!!! :-(((
but traffic is filtering correctly.

Here you can see output of
netstat -n

It seems to be hard fighting with such an amount of opened connections (4662), but it was not written anywhere that HTB would not be able to handle that...

When I am browsing WWW it is almost as slow as there would be no HTB at all.

Why is that??? What is wrong?

p.s.
I set HTB to 70kbit, which is 8,75kB/s.
My connection's maximum speed is about 11,2kB/s.
(my tests)

I did write that, becouse many of you would say that all this is becouse
queues are growing in my modem - which can not be true.
