Also see `scp -l 200 bigfile.iso [email protected]:path/in/destination`

from man page:

-l limit

Limits the used bandwidth, specified in Kbit/s.

Also you probably shouldn't use scp. rsync and sftp have mostly the same semantics.

    rsync --bwlimit=2OOK bigfile.iso [email protected]:path/in/destination
    sftp -l 200 bigfile.iso [email protected]:path/in/destination
Although it seems that scp is becoming a wrapper around sftp these days:
