Afrihost’s uncapped ADSL leaderboard for the past month shows that its top users consume massive amounts of data.<\/p>\n

Afrihost’s leaderboard – called Data Kingpins – details how much data its top uncapped DSL users consume over a rolling 31-day period.<\/p>\n

The leaderboard consists of Home Uncapped, Premium Uncapped, and Business Uncapped users across line speeds from 1Mbps to 40Mbps.<\/p>\n

The top user for the period was a\u00a0Premium Uncapped DSL account holder with a 20Mbps line – consuming\u00a05,589GB in 31 days.<\/p>\n

This works out to just over 180GB of usage per day.<\/p>\n

Even at the low-end of the range, users put in some serious downloading.<\/p>\n

A 1Mbps Home Uncapped user managed to consume 531GB of data, which works out to a respectable 17GB per day.<\/p>\n

The top users are detailed in the table below.<\/p>\n
