What does DKIM-based rate limiting do?

When I examined opendkim-2.4.1, I noticed this configure option:

  --enable-rate_limit support for DKIM-based rate limiting

What does this do exactly? We run j-chkmail solely to provide SMTP
rate limiting. It maintains a database of all IP addresses used for
client connections over a time interval, applying rate limiting to
those that exceed configured values. Does Opendkim now do something
similar?
