Can someone give more precise measurement of "small bandwidth"? What is the smallest bandwidth of a queue which is known to work reliably? Did I understand correctly there is resolution to this issue, and if so, which is it?

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding how prio > works. I would expect this as well, and I've been able to get it to work on old ALTQ queueing system but not on current queueing system. Either I'm misunderstanding how prio works as well, or we are coming to the point where multiple users aren't able to get it to work. Either way I hope some authoritative person from OpenBSD who knows how prio works will give us the possibility to understand it by means of direct advice, correct documentation, or confirm it doesn't work. Some of us poor illiterates don't understand pf code and depend on manpages. -- Before enlightenment - chop wood, draw water. After enlightenment - chop wood, draw water.
