This afternoon I received a "you are over quota" email from Paradise (thank goodness). Turns out crawl.NN-NN-NN-NN.googlebot.com downloaded the same 9MB pdf as often and as fast as they possibly could with the available bandwidth, clocking up 8.5GB in 2 weeks. Have Google become royal bastards, or is there another explanation? No signs of being hacked, and anyway the Paradise usage pages agree with my server logs, both putting the offending IP numbers square with Google.
