My mirror got throttled effective yesterday

[Robert Pendell <shinji257 at uplink dot net>]

I run the mirror cygwin.elite-systems.org.  As of yesterday the system
automatically throttled the site and all requests got redirected to a
page notifying users of this.  However this might cause issues.  I will
be increasing this however from 350 GB/mo to 650 GB/mo.  Before it was
sufficient for approximately 11GB/day but now it should be able to
sustain 20GB/day without too much trouble.  I have also lifted the
throttle that the system put on that site.

Here is the bandwidth usage starting on the first day of the billing
cycle.  The last entry has no usage because that was the day it was
throttled.
