Obviously I don't think someone who'd buy a traffic shaper like this would attach it directly to a computer, but rather a network.
45Mb/s is piddly these days. I've worked on networks with bandwidth measured in the gigabits, sometimes with several 10Gb/s links. 1Gb/s aggregate is rapidly becoming the minimum for any ISP that calls themselves a regional ISP. I think shaping traffic under 100Mb/s can be done easily with a cheap general purpose computer.
