HELP!!! Dummynet Causing Machines Dead??

[mzu at cs.uh.edu]

Thank you very much! But I'm using FreeBSD 4.1.1

Is there anyway to avoice the death? I do need some lower bandwidth such
as 1Mbit/s, 800Kbit/s. Is there a safe way to set queue?  How about queue=
0? I remember last time I tried large queue size like 150Kbytes for 5M
bandwidth, the machine died immediately. :(
