LARTC - May 2004 - Bandwith especification.

Hi,
If I have a DSL router with 300kpbs upload bandwith:
Linux(eth0) ---(100Mbps)---> DSL ---(300kbps)---> INTERNET

Which is the recomended value I must set in my QoS setup for the maximum 
outbound bandwith of my ethernet interface ?
The max of 300kbps or something less like 290kbps ?

Especify less than the maximum available bandwith is advisable to ensure that 
the QoS algoritms goes fine, isn''t it ?

Greetings.
