to4kawa, your solution seems to only one speed per customer, but what I want is the 10 lowest speed per customer. I have found that this solution si working well even if it is not beautiful :

| sort customer, Speed
| streamstats count as row by customer
| search row <= 5
| fields customer, Speed

Rather than describe the problem in terms of SPL (which may not describe the problem at all), can you describe it in natural language?
What do you want the results to look like?
