Traffic shaping? Did you try it at 6am or 1am?

No, I did not. I'm usually not awake at 6am, and usually go to bed before 1am.
Are there traffic shaping schemes that limit the speed on a single TCP
connection and not the entire bandwidth? (Which in prozilla's case may consist
of several connections to the same host.)



012 traffic shapes that way from around 3pm until 3am. Full speed for about 1-2 megabytes (I don't really have been able to figure out the exact number) and then it goes down to about 10% of the line's capability. Multiple connections all get limited.

I wish I had a serial multiple connection downloader, i.e. it downloads a megabyte, closes the connection, waits 10 seconds and downloads another, until the full file is downloaded.

Meanwhile when the latest Ubuntu came out, I was able to download 4 CD ROM images at full speed at 9pm.

You can easily test it:

cat "wget url" | at 03:00

To help restaurants, as part of the "stimulus package", everyone must order dessert. As part of the socialized health plan, you are forbidden to eat it. :-)
