one thing that comes to mind is the large number of ISO files i have

size of all new ISOs is about 30GB (x6 mirrors = 180GB) so i would think
that could not account for all the extra bandwidth but it is significant

If 1984 hosts more than one server and the received figure was for those 6 mirrors also, it would make sense.

If the figures are for a single server and not the mirrors, then it wouldn't, as only ~30GB would have been received by that server in relation to the ISOs.

That said the mirrors would have to download from the server, and ~180GB is greater than the transmitted figure (109.52), which generally leads me to believe the transfer quota figures aren't right.


also that is not accounting for any users downloading them - as i
mentioned in a previous thread, the wiki hyperlinks to all of the
previous ISOs pass ?noredirect to repo.parabola.nu - i have since been
adding the new beta ISOs without that flag but the new openrc ISOs which
seem to be popular specify ?noredirect

But the issue isn't so much with what's transmitted from the server (downloads), the bulk of the problem is in theory lots of data being either requested or uploaded to the server ie. received (and then purged).
