Problem, as I see it, is that we base output rates on the rates that we recieve
data from nodes.  Most do not have symetric bandwidth (I have 20-30x more input
bandwidth).  In other words, even though I limit my output bandwidth, I can 
handle
much more input 20-30x more input...  Freenet does not seem to understand this.
