slow it down!




Slowing down a web connection to test Flash loaders

Speed limiting example

What I needed was a way to test for a slow connection, but I didn't want to slow down the testing of other parts of the app, so I wanted to have an unlimited number of connections (say 1000), but to limit the speed of each of these to 150kbs:


<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName orchive.sness.org
DocumentRoot /home/sness/nDEV/orchive/public
RailsEnv development
CBandSpeed 150kb/s 1000 1000
</VirtualHost>
