No fortunately that is not the case, as Carnë explained the bandwidth limit is on the web pages only (which do not go through the mirroring system), not on the distribution files.

OTOH what has changed recently is the addition of the OSX binary (3.8.0), which is quite large (about 10x the size of the MSVC installer). So maybe SF is choking on distributing such large file.
Anyway reducing the size of the OSX binay is on my todo list, but that will cost me time while the sourceforge.net bandwidth doe not cost me anything so the priority is currently low ...
