Client compression is another possible means of reducing the amount of data transferred. As far as I know, TSM has no facilities for limiting the peak rate of data transfer. Your network infrastructure might have that sort of capability. For example, some routers can limit the rate at which data is transferred between a specific pair of addresses.
