Yeah, that is a good mod to install :D It does say that you can throttle
the bandwidth down to say 10kb/second, or 5kb/second, to simulate dial-up.
I have jaguar 10.2.6 also, and It would be nice to throttle my bandwidth
down so that people dont kill my internet connection while im on
battle.net... :)

>> Hi guys,

>> This may be in danger of going OT, but I'm looking for a possible PHP

>> Without going into a long and drawn out tirade about the shortcomings

>> authentic simulation of making an HTTP request to the server. And of
>> course, what better way to do this than on my local apache server? Of
>> course, in order to properly test preloaders and whatnot I need to
>> simulate a slow connection, like 56k dialup, for instance.
>>
>> So, is there a way to use PHP to slow down the execution of a specific
>> page on my local machine? For those of you familiar with Flash, I am
>> aware of Flash's capability of doing this, but the testing environment
>> does not support bandwidth simulation for externally loaded movies,
>> which is why I'm looking for a different solution.
>>
>> I'm running Apache 1.3.26 and PHP 4.2.3 on Jaguar (Mac OS 10.2.6)
>>
>> Thanks in advance for any advice,
