I still have no clue about the reason, but it would be really nice to
do some short test with more current kernel (>= 2.6.27) and iproute2
(to exclude the possibility of some incomaptibility in configs e.g.
rate tables passed to htb).

I installed kernel 2.6.29 (finaly! wasn't easy... I couldn't set
memory split 2G/2G),
but the results are the same. I've already applied gen_estimator.c
patches (works fine).

I'm working on a newer iproute2.
