I think TBF itself does *not* seperate connections in a class, so new
connections in the same class will not be prioritized. I presume only the
first connection will receive a short burst time, but all other have to
live with the slow rate.

A possibility to attach a seperate TBF to each connection sounds
attractive, but on the other hand, it would request much more processing
power.
