[ENet-discuss] Limiting bandwidth per ENetPeer

[Jay Sprenkle]

I was interested in the same thing. It makes a good way to throttle people
who are trying to hack your service.
My research indicated the bandwidth limit is a total bandwidth limit not a
limit per connection.
I could be wrong though. If you figure out a good way to do this please let
me know :)
