Not a typo, really 200Gbit/s [QUOTE][B]Fastest in the universe[/B] The Gathering beats the Swedes and the rest of the world's computer parties with the fastest internet access in the universe, 200 Gbit/s. GENERAL – MAR 1, 2012 In cooperation with Altibox, The Gathering, have set an extreme goal: to have the universe fastest Internet access. After last year’s world record of 110Gbit/s, the Swedes at Dreamhack answered with 120 Gbit/s on their event. Just like cross-country skier Northug answers the Swedes before the finish line, TG and Altibox answers the Swedish record with a new world record. “We have a long tradition of breaking records. With this internet access we write history again”, says head of information at The Gathering, Simon Eriksen Valvik. “No way we would let the Swedes keep the lead on this, and we didn’t just raise the bar a little, we moved it a story up, continues Valvik Eriksen.[/QUOTE] [url]http://www.gathering.org/tg12/en/news/27/56/Fastest-in-the-universe/[/url] Anyone here going there?

So, in theory you could download pretty much every game in 1 second. What the fuuuck!
Bet there's someone who'll be dragging one of [URL="http://blog.backblaze.com/2011/07/20/petabytes-on-a-budget-v2-0revealing-more-secrets/"]these beasts[/URL] to it.
[QUOTE=tratzzz;34941666]So, in theory you could download pretty much every game in 1 second. What the fuuuck![/QUOTE] A few hours at least.
[QUOTE=tratzzz;34941666]So, in theory you could download pretty much every game in 1 second. What the fuuuck![/QUOTE] Nah, it depends on the servers and torrents (LINUX DISTROS) But a game takes less than an hour to download.
[QUOTE=Pepsi-cola;34941727]A few hours at least.[/QUOTE] I worded it badly. In theory, you could download a game in 1 second. Because I do not know any games (For PC) what are bigger than 20 GB. Correct me if I am wrong. By every game I meant as from all the games out there, you could choose the one you want and you would download it in around a second. I do not take HDD bottlenecks etc. into consideration so yeah..

I know that the HDD is not too fast in your PC nor in the server. It would be very hard to actually get that speed.
Also last year when it was 110Gbit/s We managed to only use 20% of its capabilities We were encuraged to download EVERYTHING
[QUOTE=Lazore;34941911]Also last year when it was 110Gbit/s We managed to only use 20% of its capabilities We were encuraged to download EVERYTHING[/QUOTE] Make a copy of the internet and save it to /dev/null
Download ALL THE PORN. [editline]1st March 2012[/editline] ALL OF IT.
Technical University of Denmark together with some German researchers pulled 10.1 TBit/s over a 30 km line in 2010. I know that isn't a commercial line, I just wanted to mention it while we're on the topic of insanely fast link speeds.
Funny thing, if you actually have the money for it, you can buy this speed in Norway. Altibox are pretty rad
I wonder if the organizers had anything against LAN attendants hooking up to the LAN with fiber. You'd probably have to be running at least 2 good SSD drives in RAID0 to saturate a fiber though.
