mDNS traffic is 99.9% local, shouldn't matter for metered connections.
In the Windows world, you have a one-click which says 'I am on a
metered
line' which is supposed to do things like that. I don't see anything like
that on the Mac but I am only 'learning' it now.
In MacOS X there's "Low data mode" switch, but it's available on WiFi
connections only (it seems).
