tylertreat/comcast: Simulating shitty network connections so you can build better systems.

Comcast is a tool designed to simulate common network problems like latency, bandwidth restrictions, and dropped/reordered/corrupted packets. It works by wrapping up some system tools in a portable(ish) way. On BSD-derived systems such as OSX, we use tools like ipfw and pfctl to inject failure. On Linux, we using iptables and tc . Comcast is merely a thin wrapper around these controls.
