How do you count the bandwidth?

Packets are discrete while bandwidth is continuous.

Let's say that you have a bandwidth limit of 5 KiB per second; now imagine that
a packet comes in that is 42 kilobits, if you download that packet in less than
a second, you have gone over your limit. But you cannot slow down half way
through a packet.

You have said that you do not think that Freenet should average things out, but
that is the only way to move from discrete to continuous math while preserving
any sense of sanity.
