So…that’s not a lot of archive, so I’m guessing that it’s outbound bandwidth that will be
the driving cost. But even that…how popular is it _really_ ?
It seems like, given the nature of the collection, it might not be hard to persuade one of
the cloud providers into discounted rates for hosting, although…it’s so small that that
might not work, because that little data, well, you’re not a customer big enough to have a
Google or Amazon rep.
I’ll put out some feelers. Rough bandwidth data, if we can figure out some way to find
it, would be good to have.

Let's see what happens with the server first.
I have a copy of the most recent data, and the mirrors are all still there.
I've asked that we disable the rsyncs until we can do
a fixity check.
I have no idea how much bandwith is used. The archive is about 300gb
