@lupyuen that cut-over at the end of talks was brutal. It was really a scheduling problem though. They *really* should have just added padding between sessions. You may not have to walk between sessions in a virtual conference, but it's a good time for follow-on discussions and socializing within the context of the conference. I've been annoyed at how these online conferences force you to either 1)defer all of your networking until after the conf 2)skip sessions 3)be distracted during sessions

@lupyuen That entire article is predicated on only a few facts, but just treating the traffic control, it can not only be mediated by over-selling, but better managed by using things like HTB and stochastic fairness to maximize throughput and and still give a *minimum* guaranteed bandwidth to customers. And it's not carved in stone that every customer should get 100mbits. That's quite a lot for most people really. Easy to get an order of magnitude difference and make 30 billion $ plausible.
