Without this -option, curl starts the next transfer as fast as possible. - -If given several URLs and a transfer completes faster than the allowed rate, -curl waits until the next transfer is started to maintain the requested -rate. This option has no effect when --parallel is used. - -The request rate is provided as "N/U" where N is an integer number and U is a -time unit. Supported units are 's' (second), 'm' (minute), 'h' (hour) and 'd' -/(day, as in a 24 hour unit). The default time unit, if no "/U" is provided, -is number of transfers per hour. - -If curl is told to allow 10 requests per minute, it does not start the next -request until 6 seconds have elapsed since the previous transfer was started. - -This function uses millisecond resolution. If the allowed frequency is set -more than 1000 per second, it instead runs unrestricted. - -When retrying transfers, enabled with --retry, the separate retry delay logic -is used and not this setting. |
