Well, I was a bit unclear, or rather unsure of what I
really wanted. I actually want clients that use more
bandwidth to have less priority, which is what wrr can
do.

Interesting. But would SFQ for example, result in low
latency on a heavily used connection for clients that
doesnt use much bandwidth?
