Hopefully my ISP won't start moaning at me! 

Nah, they'll just bill you for it....

I started to feel guilty since we have somewhat of a sweetheart deal for transit so I've throttled back to about 100mbits/sec. And it's pegged. The leeches are out in full force! :)

Even when it was at 500mbits/sec the load on the system was surprisingly low...between 0.1 and 0.25. That old fashioned washed up Centos 4.4 seems to still be holding up. :)
