NAME
trickle — a lightweight userspace bandwidth shaper
SYNOPSIS
trickle [-h] [-v] [-V] [-s] [-d rate] [-u rate] [-w length] [-t time] [-l length] [-n path]
[-P path] command ...
DESCRIPTION
trickle is a userspace bandwidth manager. Currently, trickle supports the shaping of any
SOCK_STREAM (see socket(2)) connection established via the socket(2) interface.
Furthermore, trickle will not work with statically linked executables, nor with setuid(2)
executables. trickle is highly configurable; download and upload rates can be set
separately, or in an aggregate fashion.
The options are as follows:
-h Displays help.
-v Increases the verbosity level (can be specified multiple times).
-V Prints version.
-s Runs trickle in standalone mode, independent of trickled(8).
-d rate Limit the download bandwidth consumption to rate KB/s.
-u rate Limit the upload bandwidth consumption to rate KB/s.
-w length Set peak detection window size to length KB. This determines how aggressive
trickle is at eliminating bandwidth consumption peaks. Lower values will be
more aggressive, but may also result in over shaping. The default value (512
KB) is usually sufficient.
-t seconds Set smoothing time to seconds s. The smoothing time determines with what
intervals trickle will try to let the application transceive data. Smaller
values will result in a more continuous (smooth) session, while larger values
may produce bursts in the sending and receiving data. Smaller values (0.1 - 1
s) are ideal for interactive applications while slightly larger values (1 - 10
s) are better for applications that need bulk transfer.
-l length Set smoothing length to length KB. The smoothing length is a fallback of the
smoothing time. If trickle cannot meet the requested smoothing time, it will
instead fall back on sending length KB of data. The default value is 10 KB.
-n path Use trickled(8) socket path to communicate with trickled(8). By default,
/tmp/.trickled.sock is used.
-P path Use the specified .so instead of the standard one, this is useful if you don't
run trickle from a standard installation.
EXAMPLES
trickle -u 10 -d 20 ncftp
Launch ncftp(1) limiting its upload capacity to 10 KB/s, and download capacity at 20 KB/s.
Use trickle online using onworks.net services
