Description: user-space bandwidth shaper
Trickle is a voluntary, cooperative bandwidth shaper. it works
entirely in userland and is very easy to use.

The most simple application is to limit the bandwidth usage of
programs.
Now I haven't had the need to control bandwith usage, but if I was so
inclined, I guess I would try this package...
