  Cool project & glad to see there are datacenters willing to help out. Kinda amused that they can't accomodate 1gig anymore. Progress!

  As a side note, if you have a lot of VMs setting up a local proxy (Apt-Cacher NG) is pretty straight forward. Catches the majority of my apt traffic especially since I'm rebuilding stuff nightly tends to hit the same packages over & over

  That amount of data a day is none trivial amount. Cool write up.

  Thin clients aren't mentioned and I don't see how they are involved. Who writes such head lines?
