[nsp] Frame Relay question-CIR on a Cisco 2610

I am trying to set the CIR, Bc, and Be values on a Cisco 2610. I would
like to set a low CIR and a high Be on a T1. When I set this on a Cisco
2610 running 12.2.6 with frame-relay traffic shaping (CIR of 56K, Be of
1536000 on a 1.5 Mb link), things are hunky dory until I go past the
CIR. As soon I hit the CIR, the Cisco will start to queue packets in an
output buffer and latency goes to hell. There is no other traffic on
this line. Why does the Cisco ignore my Be and queue the packets? Why
does it take so long for a 2610 to service a queue? This happens if I
am running FIFO or Fair queuing. Any help would be appreciated.

Config snippets:

interface Serial0/0
 no ip address
 encapsulation frame-relay IETF
 no ip mroute-cache
 no keepalive
 no fair-queue
 frame-relay traffic-shaping

interface Serial0/0.100 point-to-point
 ip address 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.252
 frame-relay class test10
 frame-relay interface-dlci 100

map-class frame-relay test10
 no frame-relay adaptive-shaping
 frame-relay cir 64000
 frame-relay bc 600
 frame-relay be 1536000
