The burst parameter is not made for hugh bursts.  If you don't specify a 
burst, htb will calculate the smallest one suitable for that class.

Yes and no.  Sfq creates 1 queue for a connection, but htb should distribute 
the bandwidth eaqual between the classes even if 1 class has more connections 
in it.
