[AusNOG] TPG Peering

That 9pm mark on the PIPE QLD/NSW/VIC graphs really does look hot. I wonder
if its only a Gig port in QLD/VIC also, being it touches that mark...?
Obviously a flatline at 20 on the NSW graph.

You almost need a large peer to de-pref some stuff from PIPE IX to free up
some of TPGs capacity if they won't do it... and hopefully if your lucky
make it more expensive for TPG in the process to receive it :) Then maybe
the 20Gbit port will get bumped.
