If it's really a bandwidth problem, then throttling back the ftp access
should help.

We've also planned to have anoncvs mirrors to offload the T1 that feeds that
machine, but haven't gotten around to setting that up.  There's nothing
stopping us from setting this up right now other than manpower.

Looking even further out, there has been some talk of co-locating that machine
at one of the major long-haul carriers, but I don't know where that stands
right now.
