Description
Hi quick question
Example:
create a proxy for an webapp like
toxiproxy-cli create myapp -l localhost:7777 -u localhost:5555
toxiproxy-cli toxic add myapp -t bandwidth -n speed -a rate=500
Now when I run the webapp locally and point my browser at
localhost:7777
the bandwidth rate it seems to limit only the download speed
but not the upload speed
Is it possible to limit also the upload speed using toxiproxy?

Research direction
Start with the bandwidth toxic configured by the toxiproxy-cli toxic add command and trace how traffic is handled in each direction. Determine whether the existing behavior can cover uploads, then verify completion by demonstrating that traffic from the webapp toward the upstream is rate-limited as well as downloads.
