Impose bandwidth limits for post #223

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Would it be possible to specify a bandwidth limit when posting images to Picasa 
so that my wife can still (ab)use facebook while I'm uploading her ever growing 
photo collection ? Your consideration is much appreciated.

I would also like a rate-limit option for post, specifically upload to Youtube. 
A separate download rate-limit would also be useful, as implemented in some 
BitTorrent clients. This would allow bandwidth rationing on BW-limited 
connections such as ADSL.

We are trying to use googlecl for bulk uploading of YouTube videos for 
business, but it is hogging our ADSL upload bandwidth and degrading network 
performance hugely.  There is a serious need for a --limit-rate option.

I really need to be able to rate shape the upload speed since it kills my 
bandwidth which is bad for my larger videos which take an hour or so to 
upload...

An easy workaround for this problem is using trickle to limit the googlecl 
process' upload speed. No root access or daemon required. It's available in the 
Arch and Ubuntu repos, I'm not sure about other distros. For details, see 
http://monkey.org/~marius/pages/?page=trickle

It would be nice to have this included in googlecl, but it seems development 
has slowed to a . . . trickle.
