 {{{
 Bug regarding AccountingMax for 1.4.5.0-1 and likely previous
 versions:

 As stated in torrc.sample:

 ## Use these to restrict the maximum traffic per day, week, or month.
 ## Note that this threshold applies separately to sent and received
 bytes,
 ## not to their sum: setting "4 GB" may allow up to 8 GB total before
 ## hibernating.

 In graph/log view, ARM appears to apply 1/2 AccountingMax to TX and
 1/2 AccountingMax to RX, rather than the correct behavior which would
 be to apply 1 x AccountingMax to traffic in each direction.

 Specifically, I have 2000 GB set in torrc, and ARM displays:
 Accounting (awake)                 Time to reset: 23:05:27:35
   167 MB / 1 TB                      147 MB / 1 TB
