In a similar statement of value, Blastwave.org delivers software at a rate of 750,000 to 1 million fetches of the software catalog per month. There are some 44,000 unique visitors to the site monthly and the three primary software mirrors deliver 500,000 software packages monthly. Average usage is 16,000 packages/fetches per day from a primary mirror like Perdue University or Ibiblio.org. The impact this has on users that are thinking of moving to Linux and away from Solaris is non-trivial.
