This is old hat to some of you, but it is still interesting. Below, we have a graphic from our bandwidth monitor:
Here you can see very clearly what one lone Bit Torrent user can do to an internet connection. That was one station, and it tookl up about a quarter of our total available bandwidth once it started permitting uploads, and that percentage was scaling upwards once the East Coast started waking up. From the looks of it, his "share percentage" probably was in the 8.00-10.00 range. It got killed about 9am.
We'll be seeing more of this during the year.
