Greatly increasing the freeway capacity in this way allows (and, I would argue, motivates) those that are building ramps and feeders to increase capacity to match.<BR/><BR/>I appreciate you pointing this out, however. It really is a great analogy.James Urquharthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07869296024524739031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33400508.post-16569110402639488802008-01-31T16:27:00.000-08:002008-01-31T16:27:00.000-08:00CISCO's new switch has impressive bandwidth, but i...CISCO's new switch has impressive bandwidth, but it does not necessarily help latency. See one of the comments:<BR/><BR/><I>Thats a bit like saying we could run twice as much car traffic by doubling the freeway lanes, when the freeway entrances/exits and feeder routes actually dictate the throughput.</I>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
