speedlimit 0.1.1

A python package provides speed limiting iterators other various helpers using the leaky token bucket algorithm.

Speed limit utilities that use the token bucket algorithm internally.

An example:

>>> import string
>>> import time
>>>
>>> import speedlimit
>>>
>>> police = speedlimit.SpeedLimit(1)
>>>
>>> it = iter(string.ascii_lowercase)
>>> t_zero = time.time()
>>>
>>> for alpha in police.speed_limit_iter(it):
...     print("Got %s at %0.2f" % (alpha,  time.time() - t_zero))
...
