pmr is a command line filter that displays the data bandwidth and total number of bytes passing through a pipe.

pmr project can also limit the rate of data going through the pipe and compute an MD5 checksum of the stream for verifying data integrity on unreliable networks.

What's New in This Release:
Added size units to display total bytes. It is more human-readable to display 14.31 MiB rather than 15000000 bytes. Thanks to Al Piszcz for suggesting this feature.

It is now possible to specify throughtput limit in SI, IEC 60027 and bit units. Valid IEC 60027 units (base 2) are: B, KiB, MiB, GiB, TiB, PiB, EiB, ZiB and YiB Valid SI units (base 10) are: B, kB, MB, GB, TB, PB, EB, ZB and YB
Valid bit units are: b, kbit, Mbit, GBit, Tbit, Pbit, Ebit, Zbit and Ybit.
An example: tar cvf - *FILES* |pmr -l 256kbits |nc host port
