#4249: Tor not respecting bandwidth limit

Comment(by Sebastian):
When you select 512kbps in Vidalia, it configures your Tor client with a
512kbps long-term limit and a burst of up to twice that much, which means
that for short periods of time Tor can go over the limit. Vidalia doesn't
currently allow finer-grained control for a separate value.
Also note that Vidalia only sets the RelayBandwidthRate and
RelayBandwidthBurst options, so if you are using tor as a client and also
provide a relay, only the relay traffic is affected by the bandwidth
limit.
It seems like you want to add this to your torrc file:
BandwidthRate 64KB
BandwidthBurst 64KB
to be on the safe side.
