The first 100 UBR's would have pointless throttling and the 2nd 100UBR's would have not enough throttling. It does seem currently VM's downstream traffic shaping overall is a pointless waste, in a highly congested area I have seen pretty much no improvement from it. If I am seeing nothing from it I fail to see what good areas gain from it. I dont mind posting my tbb graph's for the days this upstream trial is running so we can see the affects from that. As even tho the trial is dusk hours, I do still have congestion then on the upstream.
But those 100 UBR's with no-one using P2P would not be affected by the throttling so it would be as if it didn't exist. It's not pointless throttling in that case, it is no throttling.
