I never heard of it. This is list is for iproute2+tc problems/questions.

Its bizzare how the "linux bandwidth arbitrator" authors have never
heard of HTB, LARTC people have not heard of "arbitrator". :)
arbitrator has some nice features, it acctually tracks the bandwidth
usage and can limit the big spenders - so its more dynamic than pure "tc".
The problem is its completelly different than "tc" and requires a number of
strange kernel patches (that perhaps are not tested enough).
I wish I could see an integration of the solutions ...
btw, this list is about LARTC so the arbitrator still somehow belongs in
this categorry, although it doesn't use "tc".

But it's very useful function isn't it ?

Just to add confusion there's a Linux bandwidth controller called arbiter,
which works by delaying acks :-)
