Thanks for your reply, Jamal.  Unfortunately, we don't really understand
your example.  Please see below.
How about we take this offline. I help you and you document it so other
people understand it?
What's the mechanism for matching the IPs?  We need to insert
thousands of these rules and shape constant 20+ Mbit flow of
traffic.  If it doesn't use a hash or similar, we're back to
where we started.
Its the u32 classifier which is more sophisticated than the standard
iptables one. It does go into a tree of hashes. If you are unhappy with
it, it is trivial to add your own classifier as well.

Would you know of any real documentation on tc/ingress that
we could use to deconstruct this example and understand it?
Lets take it offline - there is no docs really. In particular this 
feature i am talking about is not documented anywhere. Unfortunately
what that means is people reinvent it every summer. IMQ being one of
those inventions.
 
I would like to also satisfy Vladmirs requirement of delaying packets
instead of policing them.

cheers,
jamal
