The purpose for this kind of throttling is different than Freenet's
purpose (as I see it).  In this case, the purpose is to leave some
bandwidth on the user's modem available for other applications like web
surfing.  However, the net effect at the TCP level is the same.  Lots of
Windows download manager type applications do this and there are no
common problems with it of which I am aware.
