That's absolutely a concern Mark, but most of the CPE vendors that support doing this are providing enough juice to keep up with their max forwarding/routing data rates. I don't see 10 Gbps in residential Internet service being normal for quite a long time off even if the port itself is capable of 10Gbps. We have this issue today with commercial customers, but it's generally not as a much of a problem because the commercial CPE get their usage graphed and the commercial CPE have more capabilities for testing.
