I've been thinking about it more.  Why do we even have separate stats
for common things like bytes transferred?  It doesn't serve any
purpose to do double accounting and reporting on everything, does it?
Shouldn't we just have single set of common stats for things like
requests / bytes serviced?

Thanks.
