Usage is actually pretty modal like that.

If you look at the Linx traffic charts (https://www.linx.net/pubtools/traffi...tml?stats=week) you can see there's a pretty quick and steep drop off of traffic towards the end of the day.

That includes all business usage as well though. VM (and all consumer ISPs) tend to see more traffic towards later evenings, and if you look at my VM chart during a fault period last month where changes in load are all the more obvious (and on a fatter pipe) you can see the precipitous drop off around 1-2am as well:


While it only takes 1 or 2 people switching off their torrents, a lot of people also do go to sleep at the same time.
