Bandwidth issues with 1.5RC4

[tgillilan]

I am concerned that right after I upgraded to 1.5RC4 my bandwidth went up nearly 10 times. I changed very little with respect to number of images, or any other pages. Is there any difference in this code that calls more images than the previous versions? I know of another user that is having the very same problem.

There is no factual reason why what you mention would be caused by RC4. It's all about HTML, and RC4 creates least amount of html from all EE versions. Amount of graphics and images is same. Probaby caused by robots reindexing your site after the upgrade. Or you have been attacked by a hack robot.
