Hey,

I would like to limit the speed for multiple downloads. I checked out the easy 
interface and found a way to limit it for just one download. Of course, that is 
not enough because I need this option for more than one download. Unfortunately 
the multi interface does not provide a way, too.

I tried google and found about some people who encountered the same problem but 
I can not get my own solution for this working. Could someone provide a little 
sample code? I simply do not get the idea to solve the problem myself. There 
must be something about a timeout, but would not it also block the other 
downloads? If it really would then it is not a suitable solution. The other 
downloads must go on and the speed should just be adjusted to get the most 
speed. 

If the limit i.e. is 200kb and I am downloading 2 files:
File 1 is downloading at 100kb/s
File 2 is downloading at 100kb/s

Thats alright. The speed is used perfectly. But suddenly File 1 is losing speed 
and is downloading at 20kb/s. Now the speed for File 2 should be adjusted to 
180kb/s.

If I had set the limit for every download to 100kb/s then File 2 would not be 
able to reach 180kb/s and would be limited to a speed that could be much faster.

I really would appreciate your help.

Thanks
Patrick
