Or use apache to do it for you.. MOD_THROTTLE and MOD_BANDWIDTH is
your friend. I've been using mod_bandwidth successfully for limiting
traffic and it works perfectly.

mod_bandwidth (and all apache mods) only can average many, small
responses. They can't effectively throttle traffic for large downloads
since download speeds are averaged between entire files. This is why
I'm looking at lartc.
