Note that Wget implements the limiting by sleeping the appropriate
amount of time after a network read that took less time than specified
by the rate. Eventually this strategy causes the TCP transfer to slow
down to approximately the specified rate. However, it takes some time
for this balance to be achieved, so don't be surprised if limiting the
rate doesn't work with very small files. Also, the "sleeping" strategy
will misfire when an extremely small bandwidth, say less than 1.5KB/s,
is specified.
