There is no such setting. Spice automatically uses all the available 
bandwidth.

That said if for some reason it settled on a bandwidth lower than what 
is truly available, it will only try to increase bandwidth usage again 
after a while and only quite progressively (at least for the GStreamer 
backend, I don't really remember what the mjpeg one does in that case).
