Hello!
I send you PM, but MAKE SURE that you have a catch all rule in your 
queues and assigned with queue, if you do NOT have the there the traffic 
  goes "over" the shaper.

also some small packet prior should help.

Yes, it really does not set priority, it guarantees all packets to 
delivery (normal cases, enough memory for buffer) and does not drop packets.

but generally, if you create 99 an 1 queues, the 99 gets more bandwidth 
and so on packets moves faster than packet in 1 queue.
