Socket throttling because client not reading data fast enough?
I have a client/server connection over a TCP socket, with the server writing to the client as fast as it can. Looking over my network activity, the production client receives data at around 2.5 Mb/s.

YouTube style throttling in Flash
I may be completely insane on this one, but it seems like the download/buffer rate of YouTube videos is faster at the beginning and the further the buffer point gets from the currently playing mark, the slower buffering goes.

What are common ways of implementing web API request throttling/rate-limiting?
What are common ways of implementing web API request throttling? Are there any libraries for common web frameworks (Rails, Django, Java, etc.) that give you this along with temporary banning?

When the app ran on a single server, I used to do it at the application level: an object that keeps track of how many requests have been made so far, and waits if the current request makes it exceeds the ...

WCF Service: ASP.NET Cache or SQL
I'm currently developing a WCF REST Web Service that will be running on Microsoft Azure. To limit the number of requests per IP address to prevent abuse, I currently store the IP and timeout using the ASP.NET Cache.
