Opposite problem -- he wants to delay routing updates if the link is full. EIGRP by default won't use more than 25/50% (I forget) of link bw, for instance, but I'm not aware of any intentional features in other IGPs to do this. If routing updates constitute enough traffic to disrupt your links, you need to investigate why you have so many updates instead of putting a band-aid on the problem.
