Problem is we are getting bursts as high as 1400kbps and the datacenter is wanting more money.

Specially when these bursts are at times consecutive for like 30 minutes.

Also because of the high bursts at time the site it self becomes rather slow. While server loads at a minimum. What is happenign is some users are using up all the of the line downloading and leaving nothing or barely nothing for users who are just surfing. causing the site to drag.

If i could cap the downloads then it would be equal to all.

I have manage to get server side files to download at 40k/s if bigger then 1 meg, however that does not effect mysql attachements.

Any help would really be appricated.
