It rather depends on what you're trying to do. iptables can only limit based on source or destination IP addresses or NICs. Squid can limit based on virtual hosts and such. vsFTPd can limit FTP bandwidth.
Since you haven't said exactly what this machine is doing and precisely what you're trying to limit, it's hard to advise you on which is best.
