mod_choke is a module for Apache that limits usage by greedy clients. It's two main functions are to limit the number of concurrent connections per IP, and to limit the rate at which apache sends data to the client. It includes detection of users behind proxy servers (using the X-Referred-By header). It includes limiting the speed at which files are sent to a configurable rate, with the option of allowing a burst at full speed for the first chunk of a file.

Please see the README for more information.
