Limiting Excessive Resource utilization by AWS S3 sync

If you want to take backup using the aws s3 sync on a large number of files than it can result in the excessive cpu and network utilization. You can limit the same using the s3api as follows

$ aws configure set default.s3.max_concurrent_requests 5
$ aws configure set default.s3.multipart_threshold 6MB
$ aws configure set default.s3.multipart_chunksize 6MB
If you want to limit the network than you can use the Trickle in linux to limit the network upload and download speed

trickle -u 10 -d 20 aws s3 sync source destination

This limits the upload speed to 10kbps and download  to 20kbps
