It's accuracy doesn't depend on the number of users/ips/...

As with the ingress policer, IMQ doesn't care much about the number of
users/ip as long as you don't want to create an IMQ device for each of
these users (in fact some people are running setups with >300 imqs,
but i don't know how well its working).

If you don't need features of "advanced qdiscs" like htb but only
want to slow down i would not use imq but the ingress policer since it
saves you one extra queue.

Bye,
Patrick
