Help: Trigger 'speed-limit' abort after this time
Category: connection
Example: --speed-limit 300 --speed-time 10 $URL

If a transfer runs slower than speed-limit bytes per second during a speed-time
period, the transfer is aborted. If speed-time is used, the default
speed-limit will be 1 unless set with --speed-limit.
This option controls transfers (in both directions) but will not affect slow
connects etc. If this is a concern for you, try the --connect-timeout option.
