[JDEV] Setting karma to disabled

[Keith Minkler]

rate.c has nothing to do with karma.. 

there are two different types of rate limiting in the server..

jlimits, (rate.c) and the <rate/> tag in jabberd.xml have been around
since pre 1.0 in the server.. they only rate limit incoming connections,
by limiting how fast a certain IP can connect per a given amount of seconds..

karma, (karma.c) and the <karma/> tag in jabberd.xml was added to the server
around 1.1 or 1.2.. they limit the ammount of bytes a connection can send per
a given amount of time.. but it's done it a flexable manner than is fully
configurable (read: a pain to configure).

If you are trying to run a simulator, or stress test, you will need to disable
the connection rate limits, not the karma limits.. 

Hope this helps!
