That is possible but prpbably not because of bug in kernel I
as I think it is because kernel handles local trafic diferently than
forwarded

so you cant use imq to shape trafic generated by server
I am comtinuing development of imq abd I face this problem most of the time.

if only want to shape incoming trafic probably you can use imq quite safely,

anyway as I see you dont need it at all you can easily shape all uploads
anyway
and since your download speed is high enough you dont need to worry about
it.

however imq can be usefull to control trafic so that you can download with
kaza and browse web or play game without high latency.
