Comment (by nickm):

 > 1. I have attached a patch for a slight refactoring of the thread main
 loop

 looks good to me.

 > 2. and I think we don't want that!

 You mean, we don't want to have the buffer size get smaller and smaller
 forever?  Indeed, that sounds bad.

 > 3. It would be useful to have the global read/write limits feature there
 before starting to test. For now, this could be as simple as a
 configuration option that specifies the upstream link capacity, and then
 the logic necessary to enforce the limit.

 Don't we already have this?  I thought that BandwidthRate already enforced
 a global read/write limit.

 > 4. We probably also want to write a bit above the per-socket and/or
 global limits

 Will do.
