    /* abort if slower than 30 bytes/sec during 60 seconds */
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_TIME, 60L);
    curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT, 30L);
    result = curl_easy_perform(curl);
    if(result == CURLE_OPERATION_TIMEDOUT) {
      printf("Timeout.n");
    }
    /* always cleanup */
    curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
