    As per our village lawyer and accountant ...<br>
    <br>
        Assuming<br>
    <br>
            95th percentile billing, sampling every 5 minutes.<br>
    <br>
        You'll need about 1.5days worth of 0 (~447 samples missing in a
    row) to bork the curve...  and it goes the bith ways.<br>
    <br>
        If you're 5Gbps committed on a 10Gbps and you burst 10Gbs for
    1.6 days, you pay for 10Gbps for that month.<br>
    <br>
        And yes that include the best effort to manage DDoS from both
    part.  We're capitalist, but no one is from big pharma =D.<br>
