Hello Misc,

  Maybe the public interested in the idea to add in the pf function
  query at slowing the transfer of data to tcp protocol ?
  To attempt to reduce the speed of the incoming flow without altq.
  This function is designed exclusively for the tcp protocol, and must work 
under the rfc.

  Can I suggest an example of rule

  pass in on $ ext_if proto tcp from $ inetrnet to any port ftp keep state 
tcprequester 5Mb

  When an incoming tcp stream reach in 5Mbit, pf starts to ask the remote side 
to reduce speed.
  But at the same time, no queues are not being built, and no packets are 
discarded.
  pf only generates requests to reduce the speed of the sending party.
