Hello Jamshid,

Delay pools provide a way to limit the bandwidth of certain requests
based on any list of criteria. The idea came from a Western Australian
university who wanted to restrict student traffic costs (without
affecting staff traffic, and still getting cache and local peering hits
at full speed).
