# Throttle Merely proxies connections to a single server, and throttles the connection to a given speed in KB/s. This is useful for testing web sites and other network based applications for which latency and connection speed can affect the functioning or presentation of the program to the user. I don't go to any lengths to ensure the speed is accurate, nor that asking for 500KB/s will get you 500KB/s, but I do guarantee if you ask to throttle it at X KB/s then you will not get faster than X KB/s. Here is the `--help` output: $ throttle --help Throttle v1.0, (C) Chris Done 2010 throttle [OPTIONS] Listens on port and proxies a throttled connection to on at speed KB/s. Common flags: -l --listen=INT -h --host=ITEM -p --port=INT -s --speed[=NUM] Speed in KB/s, e.g. 1.6. -? --help Display help message -V --version Print version information
