You should be able to setup a simple token bucket queue to allow full traffic speeds for a burst of 2MB and then lower the rate to whatever you like. see the Advanced routing HOWTO at http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Adv-Routing-HOWTO/index.html specifically the Queuing disciplines section http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Adv-Routing-HOWTO/lartc.qdisc.html It's all rather impressive.
