Subject: trickle upload limit also limits download to 10KiB/s
Package: trickle
Version: 1.07-5
Severity: normal

If I set trickle to limit my upload while using it to control a download, the download limit will be stuck a preset
value:
~$ trickle -u 8 wget -c http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/5.0.0/i386/iso-cd/debian-500-i386-netinst.iso

this should just limit my upload to 8KiB/s, but what it does is to limit download rate at 10KiB/s no mater what the
upload limit I set.
It could even be:
~$ trickle -u 1024 wget -c http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/5.0.0/i386/iso-cd/debian-500-i386-netinst.iso
It would still limit my download rate by 10KiB/s

trickle -s #standalone doesnt change this;
trickle -u UPSPEED -d DOWNSPEED does in fact allow bigger speeds;
trickle -u UPSPEED limit the download to 10KiB/s

Should use the full speed for download when we specify only an upload limit. The 10KiB/s seems to be the limit defined
in the source file trickle.c
