Problem 2: I also found that <limit-rate> (I did not find this option in the dokumentation, why?) does not have any effect, no matter what value I used. Maybe it's because of the older version?

Fallback to a file just fills up buffers as fast as it can. Not a good idea at all as Icecast will keep buffering pretty much until it runs out of memory if you're operating a relay. Better to use a local encoder (eg. liquidsoap) which does proper rate limiti...
