Re: NET_SCHED cbq dropping too many packets on a bonding interface

[Kingsley Foreman]

ok after some playing a bit if i use

tc qdisc change dev bond0 parent 1: pfifo limit 30

the dropped packets go away, im not sure if that is considered normal or 
not, however any number under 30 gives me issues.
