limiting the bandwith usage

Description
===========
Starting with 1.3.8 lighttpd supports limiting the bandwith for a single connection
or config-context like virtual-host or URL.
Options
=======
:connection.kbytes-per-second:
limit the through-put for each single connection to the given
limit in kbyte/s
default: 0 (no limit)
:server.kbytes-per-second:
limit the through-put for all connections to the given limit
in kbyte/s
if you want to specify a limit for a special virtual server
use: ::
$HTTP["host"] == "www.example.org" {
server.kbytes-per-second = 128
}
which will overwrite the default for this host.
default: 0 (no limit)
Additional Notes
================
Keep in mind that a limit below 32kb/s might actually limit the traffic to 32kb/s. This
is caused by by the size of the TCP-sendbuffer.
