Title: Limit upload on bitcoin-qt? Post by: Frozenlock on March 30, 2013, 06:21:23 AM I was wondering if there's a way to limit the upload rate on bitcoin-qt.
I want to run a full node, but I also want to make sure my webserver isn't crippled because some other peer is downloading the blockchain at full upload speed. Oh, and I did search the forum. I know there's some 'workaround', but I'd prefer if this control was directly in the client. Title: Re: Limit upload on bitcoin-qt?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=141802.0 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=45221.0 In linux you can use a tool called "trickle" to limit your bandwidth like this: Code: trickle -u50 bitcoind That will limit its upload to 50kb/s Title: Re: Limit upload on bitcoin-qt?

Thank you very much! *Tip* |
