[LARTC] fair traffic allocation for 100 Users, is HTB the solution?

Hi,

Sorry to bother you with a question, that is often ask here (i guess) :-).

I want to balance (shape) the traffic that  100 Users do over a 
2MBit sDSL connection. Each user (IP or IP group) should get the same 
bandwidth regardless of how much connections are running. If one user 
ist active he gets 100%, 2 users both get 50% of the 2MBit and so on.

I tried cbq in the past, but it did not work as expected:
Each user had its own class with 20kbits guaranteed and borrowing 
enabled. But if one user makes traffic only, he does not get the full
speed.
 I know the wondershaper and WRR, but that tools are not doing it
in the way I want it (they are working globally to keep the latency 
low, but it is not true fair in view to the users).
 What do you think, is HTB able to handle 100 classes with borrowing?
Is a 1GHz CPU with 512MB RAM enough to handle it? (I also want to monitor the
traffic of the 100 classes at the same machine).
Or are there any another ways to do it?

The HTB stuff is not easy, if somebody here has a similar configuration
and can send me his scripts I would be very happy :-).

thx
        Matthias
