HFSC Shaping wizard: speed never reaching limits ("missing" bandwidth)?

@bradenmcg:
I need a suggestion of what to collect / log in order to prove that something is wrong, as I asked earlier.
Google how to submit a proper bug report and perhaps search the development sub-forum.
Practically, you need to precisely document how someone else can recreate the bug.
If the bug cannot be repeatably recreated, the problem might be your own.
That's really hard to do without knowing what I should be logging to prove the existence of the problem. It's not like I'm coming in here screaming that everything sucks, I'm asking for suggestions of what I should be recording, specifically so I can submit a detailed bug report (or determine if this is actually a bug or not).
In any case, after re-applying the shaper wizard like 6 more times, the problem seems to have gone away, and I'm not really sure why.
The only change in procedure is that I used rc.conf_mount_rw from SSH (I'm on the embedded platform) before running through with the wizard this time. Normally the wizard invokes a double-remount (RO->RW->RO) between each step of the sequence, which makes it incredibly slow (and this is an easily-reproducible bug!) Pre-mounting RW works around this…

If you are interested in persuing a bug report I would see how other successful pfSense bug reports were conducted.
