I might've misunderstood you here, but just in case: The HTB prio parameter affects borrowing priority, not packet priority. Which basically means that the proportions which you'd get if all classes had the same priority, will look much different. In other words, low priority classes will not get any bandwidth except their guaranteed rate, as long as a higher priority class is borrowing. Personally, I only use the HTB prio for unwanted traffic class (P2P), because I find that for normal traffic, the restriction is too harsh. This is why I recommend not using the HTB prio parameter at all in the beginning, and only start experimenting with it when you really need it.
