Quoting the man page:

       --limit-rate <speed>
              Specify the maximum transfer rate you want curl to
              use. This feature is useful if you have a limited
              pipe and you'd prefer to have your transfer not
              use your entire bandwidth.

              The given speed is measured in bytes/second, unless
              a suffix is appended. Appending 'k' or 'K' will
              count the number as kilobytes, 'm' or M' makes it
              megabytes while 'g' or 'G' makes it gigabytes.
              Examples: 200K, 3m and 1G.

              This option was introduced in curl 7.9.9.

              If this option is used several times, the last one
              will be used.

Is that what you had in mind?
