Bandwith Hog: bx_files_files mp3 file
Recently my site has begun to lag considerably. As I began to look at some metrics, I noticed that one file that was the cause for a lot of bandwidth use was "/s/bx_files_files/nc4rgxdktw67qj6fhy22zpgzkdsumxka.mp3"
So far in August, this file has been access over 17,000 times. The average file size was 65.04MB for a total bandwidth usage of 1.3 TB.
Anyone know what this file might be? I have looked for the "s" directory and it is not present. Is this a temp file that is cached and deleted somehow by a chron job? It almost seems like it is being served up with every call to the server.

After searching through the file structure, I found a path that was similar "/public_html/community/storage/bx_files_files/n/nc/nc4" that had a the same but without the .mp3 extension. This file was no where to be found in my Files section of the site. I am not sure how it was accessed for download so many times.
