13If a transfer runs slower than speed-limit bytes per second during a speed-time
14period, the transfer is aborted. If speed-time is used, the default
15speed-limit will be 1 unless set with --speed-limit.

17This option controls transfers (in both directions) but will not affect slow
18connects etc. If this is a concern for you, try the --connect-timeout option.
