mod_bandwidth and mod_throttle are very different:
mod_bandwidth, which, although quite configurable, doesn't allow bandwidth bursts, so if your server is busy it could leave a feeling that connectivity is pretty bad.
mod_throttle, on the other hand, is a statistical throttling module, so it allows your sites to cope with high demand while not exceeding their transfer allowance.
on www.youza.com we dont use any of them

Can the users themselves (using some control panel) change the values of mod_bwlimited, or can it only be done by the host? And does it cap the transfer rate, or does it limit the amount of data transfered in, say, a month, like turning your sites offline if you've used up your plan?
