 Also not that the link you gave me, has the note:
 <snip>
 In order to decouple delay and bandwidth allocation, HFSC is designed
 based on the service curve service model. In HFSC, only two-piece
 linear service curves are used for simplicity. A two-piece linear
 service curve is characterized by three parameters:
 
     * m1, the slope of the first segment
     * m2, the slope of the second segment
     * d, the x-projection of the intersection point of the two segments
 
 The following figure illustrates the two types of two-piece linear
 service curves used in HFSC. For a convex curve (when m1 is less than
 m2), m1 is always zero.

 But beware, that
