Comment(by mikeperry):

 Also, right now we are apparently throttling upstream and downstream
 independently. If the idea of this feature is to kill P2P, we should be
 summing upstream and downstream bandwidth, and throttling orcons in *both*
 directions once the sum of traffic exceeds a high limit. P2P will be
 transmitting in both directions, so it is like setting half the limit for
 it for free.
