Hi Stephen and all,

I have observed a HTB accuracy problem on the Linux kernel 2.6.30 and
the Myri-10G 10 GbE NIC.
HTB can control the transmission rate at Gigabit speed, however it can
not work well at 10 Gigabit speed.

I asked Stephen this problem at Japan Linux Symposium.  He mentioned a
HTB bug related to the timer granularity.
I want to know what is happen, and what should be do for fixing it.

Any comments and suggestions will be welcome.

For more detail, please see the following page:
