In message <199510250836.JAA22840@keltia.freenix.fr> you write: >Usenet can make it more then twenty... Using INN and nntplink, I have seen propogation times of 100ms per article, making 20 hops 2 seconds. That's dealable =) The USENET paradigm can also make things much better for the overloaded EU<>US link; one (or two or three) copy flows and gets redistributed on the other side, instead of the email copy-per-subscriber... This whole one-fanout-point thing is the problem (and it's clear that jmb recognizes that). I'm simply suggesting that adding on another single fanout point may not be the best solution.
