The server's uplink is certain to be full-duplex and outbound heavy, so inbound bandwidth is effectively unconstrained. You still could run into line congestion somewhere in the middle, in which case bandwidth optimizations would help, but router congestion is much more common.
Except in mobile networks, as you note.
- jmileham 15y agoI'd guess that the mean request size is misleading though - it is presumably the average of a mix of lightweight CDN requests and gargantuan app requests loaded up with the egregious cookies jgrahamc mentions. It's not hard to imagine a healthy number of requests hovering right at the brink of breaking into two packets with a 1500 byte MTU.
