> crazy things like run an NFS server over the internet
Is that so crazy? If 10G was the default, you could just plop a cheap NAS at home and nobody would need to pay monthly subscriptions for cloud services.
For cloud services, I only need to match the bandwidth my cellphone has for my home NAS, so 1Gbps would be fine.
10Gbps is like.... my /home on my desktop could be served via NFS from somewhere else and it would probably be barely noticeable. That's just another level of crazy.
How is 1G insufficient for running a NAS over the internet?
