Description

Is there an existing issue for this?

  • I have searched the existing issues

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe the problem.

In some scenarios, we need to limit the file upload speed so as not to affect other services, and reduce the overall load of the machine (cpu, network disk, etc.), is there currently an out-of-the-box function or support for custom implementation?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be nice if the framework provided easy configuration options to achieve this goal.

Research direction
Explore existing ASP.NET Core middleware for rate limiting (e.g., response rate limiting) and consider adapting it to throttle the request body stream. Look into the request body reading pipeline and implement a custom Stream wrapper that delays read operations to limit speed.
