Hi all,

we are terminating a few hundred DSL customers on Linux machines and
want to introduce traffic shaping for voice, etc.

As we have a full Linux stack both on the CPEs and on our termination
equipment, we are extremely flexible in what and how we want to shape.

The obvious choice is tc/qdisc and while I do have experience with it, I
could not find any numbers about scalability. While I assume that our
workload is not a problem on today's hardware, I'd rather be safe than
sorry.

On reasonably new hardware, how does tc/qdisc handle between one and two
hundred Mbit/s on a few hundred ppp interfaces? If anyone has some
ballpark figures about their own usage and/or a link to a statistics
document, it would be much appreciated!


Thanks a lot,
Richard
