I don't know what OS you're running Bacula on, but Linux already
features a variety of traffic shapers. Read up on 'trickle', or the
tc/qos systems in the Kernel (usable with the wondershaper script for
example, ...). Other *nixes probably offer similar functionality.
I do believe Windows also has a QoS implementation but its configuration
eludes me.
Greetings,
