Hi list
I was wondering if this is (or could be) possible with rsync. I was
wondering if there was a way to change the bandwidth limit
(--bwlimit=KBPS) dynamically while rsync is running? Could this be
possible maybe with signals like USR1 add 5KBPS and USR2 subtracts
5KBPS? I'm not a programmer, just throwing ideas out there!
If your OS is Linux, you can limit the bandwidth at the OS level with
tc (although it's a bit complicated to use), and change that while
rsync is running.
