Allow arbitrary input for bandwidth throttle

[cyberduck]

puntloos created the issue

So my uplink is 20Mbit/second.
1Mb/sec is slow(ish)
Unlimited even manages to disconnect my gmail connection.

Why not just give us a little box where you can enter a number? Thanks!

(and I can't find a .cyberduckrc file or something, I wouldn't mind manually setting it just once)

hows that on a low priority?
seems like a easy and quite useful enhancement
my speed is 16mbit I'd like to set a limit yo 15mbit so it don't slow down my other browsing as much ..
1mbit is just not a good alternative

Custom bandwidth, or at least more choices, is a very useful feature. To avoid hogging all the bandwidth on my internal network and slowing everyone else down, I have to set Cyberduck to 1MB/s. On a 10 MB network, this is too much throttling. Seems like 1 MB would be much too low on a gigabit ethernet netowork.

Note that FileZilla offers a custom input dialog for upload/download bandwidth.

As of c8296a8 you can define the options available in the Preferences using a hidden preference. You must give a comma delimited string of values in bytes.

• For downloads:

defaults write ch.sudo.cyberduck queue.download.bandwidth.options 102400,1073741824

• For uploads:

defaults write ch.sudo.cyberduck queue.upload.bandwidth.options 102400,1073741824

The option has been changed to the same for both downloads and uploads. Use

defaults write ch.sudo.cyberduck queue.bandwidth.options 102400,1073741824
