The problem was more than such users were taking up a lot of "FTP
slots" since they had really looooong downloads.  There are only 3600
FTP slots max and when you have between 200 and 300 people a day
downloading the ISO images, as we did, it really plays hob with the
traffic patterns and penalizes those who just want to jump in for one
or two small files and then leave again.
