Traffic shaping #257

Open andrewchambers opened 2 years ago

Sometimes it is nice to limit the bandwidth used by bupstash so a background backup does not consume all the network resources of a machine.

We could either implement some sort of traffic control directly, or at the very least have a guide for all the supported platforms on how to do it using BUPSTASH_REPOSITORY_COMMAND.

Mostly done on firewalls in the datacenter areas I used to work. Sometimes, we had to configure hosts directly (linux or windows). I could write something up if needed.
