How many users use your 6rd BR (pr. BR if many)?

How does the rate-limiting (drops) numbers look at your side?

We hit a problem where the default rate-limiting (100/10) where way to
aggressive. Right now, we have reduced it to minimum (1/200), but we still
see some drops. Next step would be to turn rate-limiting off, but from an
operational perspective, it does not taste very good.
