Slowy is a tool which simulates custom connection's conditions and limits the network traffic to a specified destination port. It is useful for web developers who need to test a website with a real-world connection or for limiting bandwidth hungry applications.

It currently supports:
  • custom bandwidth limit (kbit/s)
  • custom packet latency (ms)
  • custom packet loss rate (%)
  • custom destination port (so you will slow down only a single service)
Slowy is an OS X MenuBar app, so it is lightweight and is placed only on the system topbar.
What's New
Version 1.2:
  • the upload limit
  • the possibility to set different values both for the downlink and the uplink
  • the chance to set presets which can limit only the upload or the download
Requirements
Intel, Mac OS X 10.5 or later

If you install Apple Developer tools there is something similar built in called Network Link Conditioner. This can simulate all sorts of conditions like 3G/Edge/WiFi (Lossy, Average and Good for each type).

It's in /Developer/Applications/Utilities/Network Link Conditioner, and installs as a preference pain.
