Hmm, well that's odd. Output limiting is not accurate, and there can be a lag of
up to 10 minutes before fred notices changes to the conf file, but it seems to
basically work in my experience. Some disparity between fred's usage report and
iptraf's could be explained by instantaneous vs. long period sampling, but can't
explain a limit of 4k apparently maxing out your upstream.

Could you post your outputBandwdithLimit line exactly as it appears in
freenet.conf / freenet.ini, and maybe the immediately surrounding entries? I
suspect it's not doing anything at all because it's somehow malformed, thus
letting freenet run unlimited.
