It's because you have giants - possibly because your nic does tcp
segmentation offload so locally generated traffic goes through htb as
big chunks before it gets segmented down to the nic's mtu.
You can check/turn that off with ethtool -k or you could use htb's mtu
parameter for each rate (I'm not sure if you need to do ceils aswell)
which makes the granularity of the rate table bigger so it can handle
the larger mtu.
Andy.
