We a stand alone hyper V (server 2008 r2 with hyper v role installed) how would one limit the IO of a particular vm and its network for simulations?

I've secured a fairly powerful Dell R710 kitted out, but I want to experiment with how an application operates with under powered kit. I know in vmware you can limit IOPS and in workstation you can introduce things like packet loss but I'm not sure about hyper v.

Any thoughts or recommendations?
 
I'm tempted just to throw ESXi 5.0 on there and limit the I/O. I can slow down network easily enough even in the guest OS. I want to simulate poor performing servers, I can do this in ESX, shame it seems to difficult in HyperV!

Thanks so far, but my googlefu has also failed me.
