I took a look at the trickle source. Opening trickle.c you can see the following code:
main(int argc, char **argv) { char *winsz = "200", verbosestr[16], *uplim = "10", *downlim = "10", *tsmooth = "3.0", *lsmooth = "20", *latency = "0"; ..... while ((opt = getopt(argc, argv, "hvVsw:n:u:d:t:l:L:")) != -1) switch (opt) { case 'v': verbose++; break; case 'w': winsz = optarg; break; case 'u': uplim = optarg; break; case 'd': downlim = optarg; break; case 'V': errx(1, "version " VERSION); break; case 'n': strlcpy(sockname, optarg, sizeof(sockname)); break; case 't': tsmooth = optarg; break; case 'l': lsmooth = optarg; break; case 's': standalone = 1; break; case 'L': latency = optarg; break; case 'h': default: usage(); } .... setenv("TRICKLE_DOWNLOAD_LIMIT", downlim, 1); setenv("TRICKLE_UPLOAD_LIMIT", uplim, 1); setenv("TRICKLE_VERBOSE", verbosestr, 1); setenv("TRICKLE_WINDOW_SIZE", winsz, 1); setenv("TRICKLE_ARGV", argv[0], 1); setenv("TRICKLE_SOCKNAME", sockname, 1); setenv("TRICKLE_TSMOOTH", tsmooth, 1); setenv("TRICKLE_LSMOOTH", lsmooth, 1); ... } In my understanding this means that the dl rate is hardcoded, and if trickle is called without the -d option the dl rate will remain at 10 k/s. I dont know how to go on with this, just wanted to help a little bit :-) -- [hardy] trickle upload limit also limits wget download https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/193195 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
