Sorry, I dont have links to such notices I read when I did tests, but
quick Google search for "hfsc overflows" is giving results like this:

Not sure (long time ago), but I think gentoo-sources 2.6.27 AMD64 on
dual dualcore Opteron 2214, 2x Intel 82571EB, 2x Broadcom BCM5754,
tested without bonding (but in production setup bonding is used),
without packet offloading, no imq nor ifb used. HFSC overflowed but
HTB was ok.
