[rhn-users] up2date stalling

[Tim Suter]

More precisely, the download rate up2date is reporting over 1500 kB/sec
and then it just stalls.  It only seems to stall when it peaks and
sustains for a short period.  Normally, my average is around 700 kB/sec. 

I know with wget, they have a --limit-rate function that works good as I
have had to use it on occasion in order to complete downloads.

Anything like that with up2date?  Is it in a config file or a command
line switch?
