pyshaper is a simple yet very versatile dynamic bandwidth manager application for Linux platforms. Most other bandwidth managers (also called 'traffic-shapers'), work on 'static shaping', in other words, by passing a static set of shaping rules to the kernel. pyshaper works by periodically scanning existing TCP connections, matching them against rules, and throttling their bandwidth accordingly in real time.
