But where is the problems? Like I can see, there is only a cpu problem
and, as far as I know, this isn't a problem!
I have, in production env, about 1k qdisc that shape traffic (on a 2x2
xeon 2.6) and the cpu are about 1% used!

On it I use the "old" solution with:
$IP -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o an_eth -d an_ip -j CLASSIFY--set-class 
1:0x10
$TC qclass add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:0x10 htb ....

If I remember correctly, this is the right list since the other is dead.
