Httrack seems to be ignoring the limits I set, both going faster or slower than
what I choose, even if I specify one socket and 1 connection per second.

But it does obey it seemingly at random.

I'll give a concrete example, I used the command:

--

httrack --max-rate=100 --connection-per-second=1 --sockets=1 --display
--verbose --advanced-progressinfo -n -i -s0 -m -F 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux
x86_64; rv:143.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/143.0' -#L500000000
<https://www.xkcd.com> 

--

It does download a lot of data much faster than 100 B/s until it gets to the
file "imgs.xkcd.com/comics/physics_insight.png", at this one it throttles at
100 B/s.

Same thing happens in reverse if I specify a larger speed, like 10000000 B/s,
use --disable-security-limits and allows many sockets and connections per
second, it still downloads horribly slowly, it feels like it doesn't fully
comply with the limits I chose. 

I'm using httrack 3.49-2 on Linux Mint 21.1 (Ubuntu Jammy)
