CBQ implementation.
It uses the packet size as an internal parameter to calculate the idle time
of the link. With the avpkt you set the average packet size, so if you leave
it on 1000, the shaping is fine for packets of 1528 bytes. If you use
smaller packets, you should adjust avpkt (packet size of 64byte : avpkt 64 or
even smaller). After that, you should be able to shape the small packets
like you want. But I never tested it for such small packets.
Anyway, for normal traffic, avpkt = 1000 is a good choice.
