If you are only doing one transfer the speed should be
throttled by the tcp window set on the underlying connection.
If other things are happening on the same tunnel you could
easily drop udp packets carrying the tunnel but the underlying
tcp retries should eventually get things through.
You might be able to use rsync with the --bwlimit option to
control the sending rate better.
