The problem is that the customers are using too much traffic for what is provisioned. If those same customers were doing the same amount of traffic via NNTP, HTTP or FTP downloads then you would still be seeing the same problem and whining as much [1] .
There is significant protocol behavior differences between BT and FTP. Hint - downloads are not the Problem. -- RSUC / GweepNet / Spunk / FnB / Usenix / SAGE
