Although I did not carry DVD iso but the quasi-DOS on the CD iso files are just as bad. Not just bandwidth consumption but several dozens simultaneous connections from a single IP. I think it's due to clients behind these IPs using some kind of download managers. So much so it is affecting those others who are grabbing *.rpm's download performance. I am tempted to use mod_bw and limit *.iso bandwidth to a reasonable low max download speed and limitipconn to limit those download manager users to a reasonable simultaneous connection.
