When I started at my current employer I found thousands of copies of 
jenkins.war in /root on on of our Jenkins masters, mostly dated Nov 25 
2013.  I have just found and fixed our broken Puppet configuration that 
must have caused this.  I'm trying to download now (I'm building a test 
Jenkins instance to test upgrades) and I'm currently seeing about 1KB/s 
from archives.jenkins-ci.org; I guess I'm paying the price for my idiot 
predecessor downloading the same file over and over to the tune of 350GB in 
one day :(
