[Network Usage] High Bandwith Usage

[raz334]

I was playing Avorion on a metered connection today for several hours i estimate about 3 hours. During that time It managed to burn up an estimated 3 GB of Data !! If i account for the possibility of other things potentially consuming bandwidth that would still put it's data usage in the ball park of about 500mb - 1GB of Data Per hour, and that was just to sit around in the same sector the entire time i was just trying to keep the sector active on the server i play on. This is a rough estimate as i was not anticipating a need to monitor the application specifically. This is highly unusual for a game, could a Dev please take a look at their network coding and see if there is something going on that maybe shouldn't be or could be made more efficient?  Thanks.
