I concur, we shape a 100Mb/s ethernet down to 50Mb/s on a 3845,
so that QoS is doable. The router gets brought to its knees
around 40Mb/s.  Turn off shaping and the router is usable all
the way up to the 50Mb/s and then some.

Is there a more reasonable way to do this on Cisco?
max-reserved-bandwidth?
