Checked out various apps bandwidth usage for the Dataone connection, using Ethereal.
Skype without video:
9 kbytes per second = approx 75 kbps = 36 MBytes per hour
ssh usage without X = 1 kbyte per second (heavy usage) = 4 MBytes/ hr
X over ssh usage = 63 kbytes per sec = approx 500 kbps = 230 MBytes per hour
Web based admin - phplist:
3 kbytes per second = approx 25 kbps = 12 MBytes per hour
Checking gmail with full interface:
5 kbytes per second = approx 45 kbps = 18 MBytes per hour
Remote Desktop on Windows:
3 kbytes per second = approx 25 kbps = 12 MBytes per hour
So, we've decided to go for an uncapped connection!
