The fun thing about the docker rate limit is that the layer tarballs are stored on S3 in us-east-1.
If you do a docker pull inside us-east-1, you’ll get a direct S3 link instead of a proxied download, and thus neither you nor docker need to pay AWS anything for bandwidth!

I thought cross-account data still cost something; is that not the case?
