It contains the average transfer speed in bytes per second that the transfer should be below during \fICURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME(3)\fP seconds for libcurl to consider it to be too slow and abort. .SH DEFAULT 0, disabled .SH PROTOCOLS This functionality affects all supported protocols .SH EXAMPLE .nf int main(void) { CURL *curl = curl_easy_init(); if(curl) { CURLcode res; curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://example.com"); /* abort if slower than 30 bytes/sec during 60 seconds */ curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME, 60L); curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT, 30L); res = curl_easy_perform(curl); if(CURLE_OPERATION_TIMEDOUT == res) { printf("Timeout!\\n"); } /* always cleanup */ curl_easy_cleanup(curl); } } .fi .SH AVAILABILITY Added in curl 7.1 .SH RETURN VALUE Returns CURLE_OK .SH SEE ALSO .BR CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME (3), .BR CURLOPT_MAX_RECV_SPEED_LARGE (3), .BR CURLOPT_MAX_SEND_SPEED_LARGE (3), .BR CURLOPT_TIMEOUT (3)
