That one was about limits and data precision.

Via ftp.

If I perform the tests using tbf attached to a class then the rate is
precise. For example, if I measure rate of 256kbit using sfq and then
tbf, sfq is always wrong at

(actual_rate/rate_set)
240kbit/256kbit = 0,9375 = 6,25%
1920kbit/2048kbit = 0,9375 = 6,25%

I performed several tests at different data rates and the innacuracy
of 6,25 percent always remain.
