My box in NL, EU is set to 1Mbps and got 685K [1] requests over the past
15.25 days (iptables ntp match count). That makes 0.5qps/Mbit average.

[1] including 83K blocked queries, mainly caused by 2 IPs.


The number of unique IPs over 2 hours (based on some home made scripts) is
about 60-250 on average with 2 or 3 peaks of 1500-5000 every 4-7 days. I
guess my machine is then listed in the global pool. I noted these peaks
often come with 2 or 3, spaced by 3-7 hours. I have no data on variation in qps.
