I was trouble shooting a problem on a connection this morning, and found that the client had three streams running to EC2 in the Amazon AWS cloud. It has been running for months, at a more-or-less constant upstream rate of about 300 Kbps per stream (all three streams together are less than 1 Mbps, but they are all constant, running 24x7 for at least the last 8 months).
