having looked at the linked page nad my copy of httpd.conf, I'd try adding the suggested block:
<IfModule mod_throttle.c>
ThrottlePolicy none
<Location /throttle-status>
SetHandler throttle-status
</Location>
<Location /throttle-me>
SetHandler throttle-me
</Location>
<Location /~*/throttle-me>
SetHandler throttle-me
</Location>
</IfModule>
Stick this in httpd.conf so it appears as a top-level request (ie, outside of any other blocks).
It looks like user numbers are controlled using ThrottleClientIP, so try adding this just below ThrottlePolicy in the above block. For four users, I'd say you probably need a size of four IP's, policy should be "Volume" (probably without the quotes), limit "5K", period "1S". Therefore the line should come out as:
ThrottleClientIP 4 Volume 5K 1S
