we're seeing a pretty significant rise in throughput on noisetor01, we
peaked at 530 Mbps at around 2011-12-09 17:00 PST, versus previous
peaks:

2011-12-08 21:00  480 Mbps
2011-12-07 21:00  470 Mbps
2011-12-06 22:00  410 Mbps

(there's a really horrific dropoff to zero around 13:00 on the 6th, and
it clearly took a long time for throughput to recover, which impacted
throughput that evening.)

Earlier peaks are in the 350 - 450 Mbps range.
