How to simulate large or slow upload to app hosted by vagrant?

Question

I have a input of type=file. I am trying to work on loading bars but since I'm hosting the app on my local system (using vagrant+virtualbox) uploads go too quickly to work with even using 80MB files.

I have not been about to find out how I could simulate a slow or large upload. I was wondering if there's maybe a way to throttle the network speed to the VM?

Another alternative other than limiting bandwidth through your virtual box would be to use Chrome Inspector. You can set throttling on the page you're visiting. For example:
