bytes/sec

[Steven Adams]

*idle musings*

You could just sit inside a loop, each iteration accepting upto a maximum
number of bits, and measuring the time it takes for each block of data to
arrive.

e.g.   using socket and time

 while 1:
    t1=time.clock()
    data = conn.recv(BLOCK_SIZE_IN_BITS)
    bps = BLOCK_SIZE_IN_BITS / (time.clock() - t1) #calculate rate of bits
per second
    if not data: break

maybe that works, or can be adapted
