Hi Denys,

In case this is still working after hrtimer -> timer change here is
another patch for testing: to check if limiting hrtimers scheduling
could matter here. Btw. could you write what is the approximate
number of htb qdiscs and classes working on each device of this box
(including ifbs)?

Thanks,
Jarek P.

(This patch should be applided to 2.6.26 or .25 after reverting
the previous debugging patch.)
