Hi Marian,

Indeed this is a worrisome bug (more like not fully implemented). I 
haven't been able to get anything from the developer. So, I would 
recommend not using the throttle plugin until this gets straightened out. 
At worst, xrdcp will crash when it encounters such a redirector. So, 
nothing realy bad will happen but peoplewill know it is the case when it 
does. As for throttle in server mode, it's problematic but not 
devastating.

Hopefully, other site admins would have spotted it and shout or workflow users would have discovered it and complain, but that's hard to tell. Sure enough, this sounds like a critical bug to fix and in the meantime, we may ask sites to check their configuration on redirectors meantime. While in federation communication goes from top-level redirectors and users don't contact directly site managers, do you know @abh3 if the issue may be masked in the redirection chain if the throttle is set on-site manager or it doesn't really matter?
