There is a length match in iptables. But I don't know if it will work.
You can also use squid and uses the delay pools in squid.
But why don't you put all the bandwidth eating traffic in 1 class and give it
a lower bandwith? If there is no other traffic, they can use the full link,
but if there is other traffic, other traffis is served first.
