doing this only for .iso files is fine. but doing it for all files is 
not. the 'big deal' is that if all the mirrors were doing this form of 
rate limiting for all files on their servers, its academic for yum to 
fall over to the next mirror, since that one will be blocking access as 
well.

besides, lets not forget that yum can itself download, even from 1 
machine, more than 5 packages in a minute. So doing a block across all 
files for 5/min is not a good idea.
