These numbers are probably worst-case (or close to it). Typical numbers are very difficult to estimate, but given that Firefox is one of the prime examples, the CUT will most likely benefit most users. There is also the case of aggregate bandwidth. Even if every user has GbE, the server will most likely not have #users Gbps of bandwidth. Average use and burst size comes into play here, but it will still be true for any large installation that aggregate bandwidth over the backbone is something to be concerned about. > It's been a while since the last time I tried to quantify this (>6 > months), but I know that when I did I was surprised at how low the overall > bandwidth usage was for 50+ users (all with large displays, >=1920x1200). > If nothing else, can this be made to be a runtime option? > It is a runtime option, in the form of -CompareFB. The issue at hand is if it should be on by default or not.
