Correct - QoS queuing usually works by maintaining separate queues for
each priority level. When the network interface wants some data to send
it will check the high priority queus first. So if the high priority
queues always have data in the low priority queues will be suspended
indefinately. For stuff like SSH the queue will be empty most of the
time, giving the low priority stuff a chance. If you schedule a high
bandwidth application to a high priority queue it will gain the small
amount of bandwidth that would've been used by your interactive sessions,
but then of course your interactive stuff will get no bandwidth at all.
