all,
this technically isn't a cisco question, but i've been a long-time reader and
this is a puzzle eluding solution thus far so i thought i would try. i also
find it somewhat intriguing.
we're connected to our upstream provider via a t-1 (we're a software house).
per mrtg we use around 400kbps inbound and half that outbound. the external
router runs at very low cpu utilization (
