Hello one more time, As others seem to already asked without reply, I'm getting lower speed rates than specified via ingress. How do I know. Because I have this in my script: tc qdisc add dev $DEV handle ffff: ingress # Filter intranet traffic, so fit it to intranet speed tc filter add dev $DEV parent ffff: protocol ip prio 10 u32 \ match ip src $Q_2_HOSTS \ match ip dst $Q_2_HOSTS \ police rate ${LAN_SPEED}mbit burst 10k drop flowid :2 So let's say I execute a X -query to the my pc. Everything goes fine and fluently till I activate my script ingress rules!Then kde seems sluggish. and LAN_SPEED is "100" (mbit) ! I don't think the problem is that I have many ingress filters because even if I deactivate them (i.e. comment on them in my script) kde slows down after adding the tc filter mentioned above. Please, have you got any idea what might be going on ? Any comments, suggestions? Have you had the same experience ? What do you think the problem might be ? Am I asking in the wrong forum ? Should report this bug to tc developers ? Come on and reply me ;-). Good luck, Edulix. -- [1] http://eshaper.sf.net _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
