I'm abashed ;-? It can't be that I've downloaded megabytes of data,
there must be something wrong.

I was talking about the size of the XML before any compression, so the number of bytes you actually download will be significantly less.

Besides does rate limiting also limit uploading? I just ask since I
can't upload now for several minutes.

No, only the map call is limited at the moment. I think somebody is probably scraping the history api or something though which will be affecting uploads - there have certainly been some abnormal load warnings this evening.
