That's a good approach. I can easily change pyshaper (mentioned in 
earlier post) so that once it determines the number of connections 
matching a criterion, it divides the bandwidth allocation by the number 
of such connections, and generates tc ingress policing filter commands 
accordingly.

I'm very time-constrained. Given that I'm often having to study source 
code just to find out how to use other programs, I don't have the time 
to do this with tc, sadly. When someone writes a thorougly detailed 
manual on tc usage (including a complete tc-filters manpage), it'll be a 
good thing.

Can you please provide all your *complete* tc commands, so I can see 
this in context and form an understanding?

Good to know.
