Makes sense to keep this bounded in some way.  For now the hardcoded
cap seems fine, looking forward to the pie in the sky future perhaps
this could be cased on some run time hueristic like N standard
deviations above mean advertized bandwidth (I don't have a clue what's
a resonable value for N).

This is how we handled storage quotas at the old AI lab, storage isn't
network but they both have a certain gaseous nature...

I've been thinking of setting up a second system (had Borg0, but I
broke the OS hard, not quite sure how...)
