What about introducing some cache offloading, like CDN doing? (Google, Facebook, Netflix, Akamai, etc) I think it can be rolled pretty quickly, with minimum labor efforts, at least for heavy content.
The thing is that if you're an 800 pound gorilla, you probably have enough things that would benefit from being cached to make it worthwhile. I'd expect that the Internet Archive is probably mostly long-tail hits with not much hot content. Has anybody modeled how much cache space would it take to significantly improve the bandwidth situation?
