The problem is my gf uses bittorrent a lot. This arrangement helps reduce the impact of the mulitple upload streams that bittorrent causes however it doesn't get rid of it. The only way I've found to prevent a terrible amount of latency is to set an ingress policing filter for each destination port 6881 through 6889 limiting the rate for each to 1kbit. This prevents the mutiple streams from swamping the htb on eth0. What I would like is to limit the range of ports to 3/4 of my upload rate as this should have the same effect but not affect bittorrent too much. Marking the packets as they hit eth0 and sticking them in the low priority queue won't help as it would be the same as I have now. To be honest I'm wondering if the fair queuing stuff in my kernel is the same as they have over at lartc. -- If you can read this you've gone too far.
