A program could obviously limit download/upload speed, but it would be a very bad idea (a suicide on the market of FTP clients).
Upload/download speeds are always determined by the server and the client's connection. A server can have upload/download speed limit, even different settings for each user / each user group. Your ISP specifies the speed it guarantees to you in the contract. For example, if you have an asymmetric line (ADSL) of 2048/256, then your download speed's maximum is 2048kbps, while the upload speed's limit is 256 kbps. This means 32 KiloByte/sec on average for uploads. So the actual speed you will get depends on the server's settings, on your own connection and on other factors as well (e.g. the server's momental traffic, this is related to the server's settings though). I use Total Commander, and its ftp service is probably better than any FTP client; and I always get proper upload/download speeds. -------------------- Mental harmony dispels the darkness.
