If you don't specify the burst/cburst on the command line, htb will calculate 
the minimum bandwidth for you.  You can always a bigger value if you want a 
bigger burst/cburst.

From the tc source :

/* compute minimal allowed burst from rate; mtu is added here to make
 sure that buffer is larger than mtu and to have some safeguard space */
if (!buffer) buffer = opt.rate.rate / HZ + mtu;
if (!cbuffer) cbuffer = opt.ceil.rate / HZ + mtu;

So it also depends on your timer resolution (Hz).  The higher the resolution, 
the lower the burst can be.
