Could be any time, the point is that if I have 100 clients trying to download, I prefer having 10 completing their download each 10 minutes then having all the 100 clients completing the download after 100 minutes.
Scenario 1 (which is what I'd like): 00:00 - 100 clients start downloading 00:10 - 90 clients are dropped and 10 clients finish downloading 00:20 - 10 more clients finish downloading ... 01:40 - all 100 clients finish downloading Scenario 2 (which is what would happen if I don't use this kind of throttling): 00:00 - 100 clients start downloading 01:40 - all 100 clients finish downloading So, scenario 1 looks much better in my opinion, because the end time for 100 clients is the same, but if you think about this download in the middle of a pipeline, the first clients can be working on other steps.
