That's my problem... I can not do *anything* while Firefox is downloading from youtube!
Have you tried wondershaper?
It does a fair job of prioritizing your network usage so things like DNS have priority over FF.
Maybe I should have a look at it... that would allow the PC doing the download to keep working, but not the rest of the gadgets in the house.
FYI, wondershaper uses tc.
You could route FF through squid so squid can set the TOS bits on all web traffic, to further the actions of wondershaper.
squid also has it's own traffic control. (delay_pools?)
Does the trick. Almost. It does not do a continuous download at 50K, but perhaps 15..20 seconds at full bandwidth, then 15..20 at full stop. As I assume that its programmer knows his job,
I wouldn't assume that. It's just a utility script. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (16.1°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
