[Click] Traffic Shaping in Click

[Roman Chertov]

fd0::FromDevice (eth0, PROMISC true)
    -> SetTimestamp
    -> Queue (10000)
    -> BandwidthShaper (5242880B/s)
    -> ctr0 :: AverageCounter
    -> td0::ToDevice (eth1);

fd1::FromDevice (eth1, PROMISC true)
    -> SetTimestamp
    -> Queue (10000)
    -> BandwidthShaper (5242880B/s)
    -> ctr1 :: AverageCounter
    -> td1::ToDevice (eth1);

StaticThreadSched(fd0 0, td0 0,
                   fd1 1, td1 1);

I would change the config to be like this and run
click-install -t 2 --cpu=0 <config.name>  This will allocate two CPU 
threads and assign the elements to the threads.

Obviously, you need to resolve your issue with the polling device so 
that you can use PollDevice.  Also, it is good to look at the counter 
rates to see if you are getting the desired throughput.
