  I know that the storage limit on premium accounts is 13GB.
  But what about data transfer?
  Are there limits on total data transferred or total requests in a set period of time (like an hour)?
  TIA!

  There are no bandwidth limits for WordPress.com Premium, generally.

  Do you have a particular data intensive use case you are concerned about?

  Thanks, Josh —

  Yes, election night we are looking at contingency plans for main website traffic overload and for alternative places to share results PDF, TXT files. We’d like to be able to send people to our WordPress site as a backup.

  Total traffic shouldn’t be a lot (low thousands) but it could come in a 15 minute or so period.

  I’m @kegill BTW and KingCounty.gov/elections webmaster.

  That should not be a problem at all.

  What if … the traffic is closer to 100K?
