Didn't FreeBSD just recently (like in the last week or two) put out a new
release?  If RedHat is any sort of indicator, new releases make downloads
run like molasses...

My numbers were from month of use, but were still mostly a "seat of the
pants" as far as what I saw as peaks on large downloads.

If we only get 20KB/sec, they can have their modem back.  ;-/
