[tor-mirrors] average mirror bandwidth consumption?

[Steve Snyder]

I agree that the destruction of logs that would identify the recipients 
of Tor content is a Good Thing.

I'm keeping logs for now because my mirror has only been up for 19 days, 
and during a period of largely unchanging content at that.  I want to 
know that all is well before I start discarding info needed to diagnose 
a problem.
