In regard to "rehosing fees", that is an intentional and accurate
description :)

  Thanks to all for the help.

You might seriously consider over-buying capacity and going with a soft
cap. 
That allows you to get 100% of your machine for periods of high demand
and 
only have to pay at the four hour rolling average mark. You might have
to do 
some work to ensure you aren't bumping up to your softcap level too
often or 
you'll never have an interval where 100% usage will stay within your
softcap. 
It's working well for us, but would be better if all our third party
licenses would 
play along.
