Try to limit all bandwidth to less then 192kbit (185kbit or so) so YOU are the
bottleneck on you are link.
And give your http class a bigger burst (20k or so). Also, if you are
downloading a lot (non-http traffic), it uses all bandwidth. If you request
a page, you don't have the available bandwidth to do it. So limit non-http
class to 180kbit so you always have some bandwidth available for httb
traffic.

I have some more info on the faq page on www.docum.org :
- overlimits : Packet is not sent due to ceil or rate restrictions
So there was to much data in the class. But don't believe this too much. It
depends on how often the qdisc looked for packets. This counter is
incremented per unsuccessful DRR loop and it's possible that this happens
more then once per packet.
Each dropped packet is overlimited.
- lended : # of packets donated by this class (from its rate)
A class can donate packets to itself.
- borrowed : # packets borrowed from the parent
So the rate was not high enough, but there was bandwidth available from the
parent to fulfill the request.
