    In theory, the switchover to byte based quota is simple.

    ;$quota_utils = $byte_quota_utils

    To switch back,

    ;$quota_utils = $object_quota_utils

    All the relevant verbs are implemented in the manner appropriate to
    the quota system, and the internal systems all use $quota_utils.

    Set up the measurement task

    ;$quota_utils:measurement_task()

    And everything should be swimming.  You'll have to adjust some
    parameters, specifically $quota_utils.task_time_limit, probably
    downward.  You want to adjust it so that it tells you it made progress
    "one times" through each night.

    Kent suggests that LambdaCore should go out with byte quota enabled.
    Should we do this in the next core (assuming we ever get around to
    actually making one?  Sorry, I've been busy and there are a bunch of
    cleanups to do to eliminate various lambdamoo-specific warts from the
    core.)
