 Once upon a time, I picked 5MB rate / 10MB burst as rate limiting numbers
 that were basically infinite. It turns out they're now limiting our
 100mbit relays and bridges.

 Should we raise the numbers? I don't think it will surprise anybody who
 wouldn't already be surprised by the current numbers.

 What should we raise them to? 25MB / 50MB? 50MB / 100MB? Should we future-
 proof ourselves more thoroughly and say 1GB / 2GB?
