I don't know if it makes any difference, but I would have chosen 500 so 
that it was 2ms. The default now is 250 and with 19k burst that fits the 
speed you get really well - with 512 it would be around 70meg. I would 
get rid of the 2 burst settings you use.

84198 bps - tc means bytes/sec by this, so it's < 1mbit. Htb uses really 
long (100 sec) average for its rate so it probably is giving 1mbit.
