Cherokee is a flexible, very fast, lightweight Web server. It is implemented entirely in C, and has no dependencies beyond a standard C library. It is embeddable and extensible with plug-ins. It supports on-the-fly configuration by reading files or strings, TLS/SSL (via GNUTLS or OpenSSL), virtual hosts, authentication, cache friendly features, PHP, custom error management, and much more.

Project: Traffic Shaping
Bounty: $500

Cherokee should be able to manage the server traffic based on some rules. This task requires the implementation of a subsystem with the following abilities:

• Set the max download speed by connection
• Set the max throughput of a virtual server
• Set the max throughput of the whole server
