Googled for about 20 minutes on this, didnt find what i was looking for.

Im installing gentoo on my work box and i dont want to suck down all
the bandwidth on the emerge sync and when i install stuff from
portage. At home its no big deal, but here is a different story.

I see that you can set FETCHCOMMAND and RESUMECOMMAND in your
make.conf for wget, but im not sure what options are there by
default. If i put a limit in here, im guessing it over rides the
default settings and it will hose the default options that get passed
to wget.

And ideas on how to quickly add --limit-rate=X option to wget and
--bwlimit=X to rsync when using emerge?

Thanks.
