                     24: Starting with 1.3.8, lighttpd supports limiting the bandwidth for
                     25: a single connection or config context like a virtual host or a URL.

                     52: ================
                     53: 
                     54: Keep in mind that a limit below 32kb/s might actually limit the traffic to 32kb/s. This
                     55: is caused by the size of the TCP send buffer.
