Simulate slow network on OSX

gistfile1.txt

Configure a pipe that has the appropriate bandwidth limit and delay.

sudo ipfw pipe 1 config bw 16Kbit/s delay 350ms
Attach it to all traffic going to or from port 80.

sudo ipfw add 1 pipe 1 src-port 80
sudo ipfw add 2 pipe 1 dst-port 80
Now traffic coming from or going to port 80 anywhere is limited by the pipe that you specified. Do your testing and once you get frustrated with slow access to the web remove the rules like so:

sudo ipfw delete 1
sudo ipfw delete 2
Finally, delete the now defunct pipe like so:

sudo ipfw pipe 1 delete
