If the cap is based on financial requirements, it usually makes sense to
set the cap around 90 to 95 percentile mark of your user base. This
makes it fairly network dependent. Even on residential-heavy networks
the p2p user population is a smallish fraction subscriber-wise but a
fairly significant one bandwidth-wise. (to have some numbers I would say
>60% and <10%)
