Throughput limit on data sender process

[cyber]

is it possible to throttle the incoming data on purpose?
assuming the disk is too slow, is it possible to impose a max data incoming rate in particular for Trapper items, so that some backpressure is applied and , for example, peaks of high incoming data rates are smoothed ?

Not that I know...

thanks for the reply,

i hope that could be an interesting use case for someone else in future and becomes a feature request.

i believe there is a lot of value in throttling input, as some "malicious agent" or misconfigured one, might be sending too much data through the pipes and throttling or even temporarily banning the agent could be a useful tool for preserving system stability.

maybe that could be a useful feature for the newly coming Zabbix Cloud too.
