We also had linux with home-made-pppoe a long time ago...
The problem is, on high bandwidth, the tc is a bit slow, and 'complicated',
too many scripts, too many rules, too much complex..
For us, mpd is another category of service clean and lightweight.

Diskless machines with Debian stable
intel nic
rp-pppoe(+home-made patches)
pppd with radius, radattr, rp-pppoe plugins
raduis + mysql for authentication
tc for shaping
Its working fine for years, but i'm not quite sure it is the best
possible setup for performance.
