judging by previous reports, it's data volume within a certain time, so
bandwidth in first approximation.

mbsync has no built-in options to limit bandwidth. but you can use
'trickle'. it's certainly also possible to use the Tunnel option with
two pv (pipe viewer) instances, bash command substitution, and
tcpconnect/netcat/corkscrew or openssl s_client. alternatively, you can
use iptables and tc to shape at the kernel level. see also
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/34116/how-can-i-limit-the-bandwidth-used-by-a-process

but the easiest solution is to simply re-run mbsync periodically until
it finishes cleanly - syncs are resumed just fine.
