Love it Love it Love it I have been telling people that the IEEE 802.3 Ethernet Working Group needs to start looking beyond 400 Gb/s Ethernet. It’s only a matter of time where we will need it!

I think it's spot on. In years past it made more sense to distribute smaller , incremental patches. More work on the software side, but it was likely a better option than getting blasted on Twitter because "OMG I WANT TO PLAY AND MY DOWNLOAD IS TAKING 8 HOURS". This just follows the same rules as networks have always seemed to; If you build it, they will come, and you'll have to build more. :) On Thu, Jan 23, 2020 at 11:57 AM Jared Mauch <jared () puck nether net <mailto:jared () puck nether net> > wrote:

Any thoughts from the community? We're taking steps to accommodate, but from a capacity-planning perspective, this seems non-linear to me.Be prepared for an entire new world of hurt this holiday season. Sony has already confirmed that PS5 releases will ship on 100Gbyte blu-ray disks. Which means that download sizes will be comparable…
There’s also the “we will stream you all the data things” I keep hearing about like the Consoles without discs or some other thing I can’t remember the name of. I think this is a tribute to how we’ve built and upgraded networks for capacity and speed. - Jared
