limiting download speed in php
Posted by Arber, 02-19-2010, 04:46 PM |
Lets say if I have:
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$name");
header("Content-type: application/rar;\r\n");
readfile(str_replace(' ', '%20', $link));
and I want to limit the download speed of that? How would this be possible?

I tried that but it only does 600bytes /sec

Is that good or bad? You never specified the download speed you want to achieve... It should be pretty easy to adjust the speed in that script...

I set it to 100kb/s and it went 600bytes/second. Please note its getting a file from a different server then sending it to the user
