pf/altq prioritisation (for ssh).

[Lewis Thompson]

Hi,

I want to use pf/altq to give ssh a high priority so I don't get lagged
down when something is downloading.

  I have:

altq on ath0 priq queue { default, ssh }
queue default priq(default)
queue ssh priority 15 priq(red)

  I'm pretty sure this ``works'' but I was really hoping for more.
Without the 5.3 miniinst ISO downloading a SSH connection is perfect (no
lag, just like the local machine) but as soon as I set it going it
becomes a bit laggy.  Am I expecting too much to have a lag-free SSH
connection while downloading something at the same time?  Any other
alternatives?
