Easily gamed. My homepage is 4GB (uncompressed) and refreshes itself every microsecond.

Easily addressed by implementing a tokens/sec cap user-side. (or micro$/sec, whatever)

Your example homepage would just bump into that limit quicker & stop refreshing (or stutter). Sounds like a feature, actually!
