limit is the sum of the bucket size (=burst) and the size of the queue. So
we police the traffic if limit is the same as burst (queue size is zero),
and we shape if limit is larger than burst (queue size larger zero).
rate/burst for the longtime controll, peakrate/mtu for the shorter
timescale (only if you need a upper bound), limit to decide about the
queue lenght. For more details look at...

That's how I understand TBF. Correct me if I got it wrong.

Kurt
