Custom Queueing and packet size

Hi Group,

I have a question re: custom queueing. When calculating the byte-count
for each queue, does the packet size in each queue affect the
calculation?

Example:

I want to allocation 20% to 1500 byte packets, 40% to 600 byte packets
and 40% to the rest. To me, the byte-count would be 1500, 3000, 3000
respectively just from normalizing the percentage allocation. But I
have read from NetMaster library that the packet size for each queue is
part of the calculation and there are various steps that need to be
performed to arrive at an approximate percentage that comes close to the
desired percentage.

Can anyone shed some light on this?

Thanks in advance...
