Nope. I'm just finding this stuff out as the results of an experiment that I'm running. I thought it was interesting. The director of the production and research networks here isn't all that concerned as its really not enough to impact our bandwidth at this point. (we're still only running at around 70% capacity when it peaks). We also want to see how long this continues and evaluate later. Also, the longer it runs, the more data I get :) "Robert E.
