CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT(3)          libcurl         CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT(3)

NAME
       CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT - low speed limit in bytes per second

SYNOPSIS
       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLcode curl_easy_setopt(CURL *handle, CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT,
                                 long speedlimit);

DESCRIPTION
       Pass a long as parameter. It contains the average transfer speed in
       bytes per second that the transfer should be below during
       CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME(3) seconds for libcurl to consider it to be too
       slow and abort.

DEFAULT
       0, disabled

PROTOCOLS
       All

EXAMPLE
       curl = curl_easy_init();
       if(curl) {
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, url);
         /* abort if slower than 30 bytes/sec during 60 seconds */
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME, 60L);
         curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT, 30L);
         res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
         if(CURLE_OPERATION_TIMEDOUT == res) {
           printf("Timeout!\n");
         }
         /* always cleanup */
         curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
       }
