Just a follow up, I was wondering if anyone knew the average bandwidth consumption?
I don't know how representative my mirror is, but I'll tell you my stats.
My Chicago-based mirror syncs with torproject.org/tor/ every 4 hours. In the first 10 days of this month I received 2.5GB and transmitted 83MB. Looking at the logs I see that the majority of requests are from various indexing entities, primarily Googlebot and Baiduspider.
Note that the stable Tor hasn't been updated for nearly 3 months and the only recent TorBrowser update was immediately followed by an advisement not to download it (due to OpenSSL breakage). I assume that requests for actual mirror content would be higher were there to be highly-sought-after new content to download.
That's my $0.02.
