Basically you have to send only 5 lines at a time, then one line every 2 seconds,
although the algorithm is a little bit more complicated.
Check out xchat (an IRC client, if you don't already have it -- http://www.xchat.org).
It has an output throttle which I am the proud implementor of :) that does exactly
that.
