Hi there,
there's really some traffic going on torrent-wise:
[View: main]

done 3787,1 MB Rate: 928,2 / 0,0 KB Uploaded: 142450,0 MB
[View: main]
CentOS-5.3-x86_64-bin-DVD
done 4346,3 MB Rate: 194,7 / 0,0 KB Uploaded: 100310,6 MB

[both have a upload limit of 2Mbps, which is sometimes hit.]
Cheers,
Timo
