We are getting group usage and group limit for the `usage` and the `quota` of the Storage API. Once an origin is persisted, zero usage would be got, though.  It should be better to make them not so accurate (e.g. having padding on the result of usage) 

Note that it wouldn't prevent from being attacked, but would just mitigate the issue (make the attackers harder to achieve their goals). 

Jan and Andrew, do you have any thoughts about the whole issue? Thanks in advance!
