On multiple models of Jetstream switches, including TL-SG3428 and T1600-28PS (>=v3 only, v1 and 2 are ok), I've noticed that rate limiting a port results in it running extremely slowly regardless of the rate limit speed chosen. For example, if I rate limit to 499968Kbps in both direction on a single port, and then test the speed using iperf the result is 8.26 Mbits/sec. If I run the same iperf without rate limiting it's up to 900Mbps.
I posted about this once before here in relation to the T1600G v3 models, but ended up using v1 models off ebay as a workaround. Now a year later I want to use new hardware and assumed the TL-SG3428 wouldn't have the same issue, but sadly it does! I know it's not a config mistake on my part as the same config works perfectly on T1600G v1 models.
Attached are some screenshots showing results.
Question is, how and should I bother reporting this to TP-Link? Do they fix issues like this or should I change brand?

Dear @Fae
Thanks for the confirmation. I'm disappointed that functionality that worked perfectly in V1 and V2 Jetstream switches is now broken and look forward to the day when new switches come out that work as expected. Until then I will find another solution or set of workarounds.
