Currently, curl allows users to specify absurd request rates that might be higher than the number of milliseconds in the unit (ex:
curl --rate 3600050/h http://localhost:8080
does not error out despite there being only 3600000ms in a hour).This PR adds a conditional check before the millisecond calculation making sure that the number is not higher than the numerator (the unit) If the number is higher, curl errors out with
PARAM_NUMBER_TOO_LARGE
