Also google will limit the size of individual emails (not sure what to but lets say 10MB). And lets face it, who is going to store 100 10MB emails in their inbox,

Bear in mind the speed factor is only for now, wait until it opens to the general public and it will go down.

When IBM used to install a new mainframe computer, they would throttle it to keep the speed down.

With only few users migrated to it, it would be amazingly faster than the previous computer, but as more users were migrated, it would only become much faster. The early migrators would start complaining about how slow the new computer had gotten rather than remembering that what they had now was still much faster.

They figured out that by throttling it for light loads, and opening it up when more users were added, everyone felt the new computer was faster and stayed happy.


Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.
