The only info I have is:
Each dropped packet is overlimited.
overlimits : Packet is not sent due to ceil or rate restrictions
So there was too 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.
