In contrast a "brand name" router will support 4 to 16 queues
per (sub-)interface.  Your large number of queues exceeds
expectations.

What are you trying to do?  You may be better off inventing a
new qdisc to meet your need (eg, to do per-IP traffic shaping
or, less complexly, a traffic shaping based on the value of mark
which might offend DiffServ purists) or have, say, 1000 output
rates based on a marking and use the ipset feature of Netfilter
to set the mark.  Using 1000 rates gives an error of 0.1% which
is unlikely to be noticed by your customers given the larger
effects of shaping on TCP performance but is beneath the
level where you are noticing performance issues.
