You can achieve a somewhat similar effect by controlling the number of
fetcher threads. I realize this is not as accurate as a specific control
mechanism, but so far it was sufficient for most users.
If this feature is important to you, please provide a patch that
implements it, and we'll consider it for inclusion.
I think that for the time being I'll just channel the traffic through a
Squid proxy, and use its "delay pools" feature to throttle the bandwidth
(and also its DNS caching, which, as I mentioned a few days ago, I also
need...). For Nutch, it might make sense to find the original patch. I'll
try to get n touch with Matthias Jaekle, who authored that wiki page where
fetcher.throttle.bandwidth was referenced.
Thanks anyway,
Enzo
