That was 1992-4ish? I helped spin up early ISPs back then. The traffic =
analysis we did at the time showed the porn crowd came out after dark =
and left at sunrise. And they were facing self-limiting servers that =
could not keep up with the demand anyway, so the 'average' customer base =
wasn't affected.
This crossed a pair of ISPs each backed by a single T1 trunk to "the =
internet" and two T1 channel banks for the dialup pool. Not quite "The =
World" but it was big time stuff for where we were.
