Of course, adding a setting like "This machine's internet connection is X
Kb or Mb / second" would be a help, especially if some common values were
added to a drop down (i.e. 48Kb, 150Kb, 300Kb, 1Mb, 2Mb, ...). And please
make it available per machine.

Re: [boinc_dev] API suggestion to
help in user retention
The goal is simply to check whether non-BOINC network traffic
is above some absolute threshold (like maybe 100 Kbps)
and suspend BOINC network activity if so.
This isn't perfect (e.g. it will never trigger for 56Kbps modem users)
but it will hopefully stop BOINC from interfering
with people watching streaming video.
