Moving data through a rate limit

Worked examples, recomputed

Every number the mechanisms quote for this relationship is recomputed from it, so none of them disagrees with it.

• 2 million customers at 10 per second → 200,000 s (≈ 2.3 days); diffs of 20,000 → 33 min
• 400 million records at 500 per second → 800,000 s (≈ 9.3 days)

Where it appears

Each mechanism states it in its own names. The general symbol each name stands for is shown with it.

  What can two parties agree on when they cannot talk to each other?

  $$2,000,000÷10=200,000\text{s}$$
