I'm using ALTQ since FreeBSD 4.6 and it's also exist ALTQ+PF that's near 
the same as OpenBSD version.

And i confirm that's shapping with ALTQ work great ! Even with 32 Kbps.
You can easely shape around 1000 rules and have a full Fast Ethernet port 
on a dual PIII (FreeBSD ALTQ port without PF)
ALTQ have many shape algo, maybe the only one with such diversity.

You have some CD distribution with ALTQ enable.
