[ale] Shaping Problem

I'm running into an issue trying to limit an interface.

Here is the script I'm using:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2486826/shaping

Status:

*Bandwidth shaping status for eth0:
qdisc htb 1: r2q 10 default 30 direct_packets_stat 2043520
  Sent 48035654356 bytes 75998560 pkt (dropped 237504, overlimits 
20036234 requeues 0)
  rate 0bit 0pps backlog 0b 0p requeues 0 *

Kernel Version:
*

GNU/Linux*

iperf test:
*
------------------------------------------------------------
Client connecting to support.opsdc.com, TCP port 9999
TCP window size: 16.0 KByte (default)
------------------------------------------------------------
[  3] local 65.254.219.7 port 60305 connected with 65.254.219.9 port 9999
[ ID] Interval       Transfer     Bandwidth
[  3]  0.0-10.3 sec  1.49 MBytes  1.21 Mbits/sec*


The results are not what I was expecting.  I'm running into a problem 
where we are bursting at Peak 10 and I want to limit it via shaping.   I 
may have to put a piece of hardware there to physically do some sort of 
limiting.  I need to limit to total bandwidth in that rack to 1.5MBit.

Any suggestions?

Chris
