This is actually quite a hard problem.

The issue is that it is difficult on a fast machine to rate limit vast,
continuous amounts of data quickly enough and to a slow enough rate that
tmux can remain responsive, without affecting interactive programs which
need to send a lot of data quickly in bursts

If tmux takes too long to start rate limiting, then a whole lot of stuff
is already in the terminal buffers and you have to wait. If it is too
aggressive, you'll see full screen programs pause halfway through
drawing the screen.
