I guess your looking to limit the bandwidth used by the Nutch crawler?
 
One idea is to set a "very low" thread count for the fetcher, maybe even going 
right down to 1 depending on the effect your looking for. Another idea, which 
would be much more controlled is to setup a throttling firewall on the same 
machine or anywhere in-between it and your gateway.
 
If you go the thread route, you will need to place the below lines in your 
nutch-site.xml file;
 
<property>
  <name>fetcher.threads.fetch</name>
  <value>1</value>
  <description>The number of FetcherThreads the fetcher should use.
    This is also determines the maximum number of requests that are
    made at once (each FetcherThread handles one connection).</description>
</property>
