Interesting, because we have a whole college attached of 10/100/1000 users,
and they still have a 3:1 ratio of downloading to uploading. Of course,
that might be because the school is rate-limiting P2P traffic. That further
confirms that P2P, generally illegal in content, is the source of what I
would call disproportionate ratios.

That might be your reality.
My reality is that people with 8/1 ADSL download twice as much as they
upload, people with 10/10 upload twice as much as they download.
