Support rate limit of less than 1 request per second

[kvigen]

Since you can only specify an integer as the rate limiting field you can't rate limit to less than 1 request per second.

We would like to use this to forward large batch background job submissions from production to staging, and since these happen at a rate of less than once per second we can't limit them right now.

Not sure what you mean, you can replicate traffic without any limitation, just not specify "limit".

Sorry, I wasn't being clear. I'm not sure how to do the following:

We get requests at a rate of 0.1 requests per second and we only want to replicate half those requests so we get 0.05 a second. Is there a way to do that given that you can filter at a rate lower than 1 per second?

This one of the features i'm trying to implement for next release.

@kvigen i'm going to merge #126 tomorrow. This should solve your problem by using percentage based limiting.

[kvigen]

Thanks @buger!

Should this be closed now that #126 is merged?

[kvigen]

Yes, thanks!
