From a Wired article citing this post[1] 'Update: An Amazon spokesperson says “For a single request the billable peak rate is the size of the archive, divided by four hours, minus the pro-rated 5% free tier.”' This seems to imply the cost is closer to 4k instead of 22k.However, the spokesperson's statement seems to describe intended system performance , not prescribe the resulting price.
