you will get billed for.

So if you burst more than 5% on average per day (2.5 hours) then
you will get burnt on it..............

So only if your traffic pattern is relatively flat......meaning no more
burst than 2.5 hours per day MAX
To clarify, its the first measurement after the top 5% is taken off. And 5% per day is actually only 1.2 hours..........
