In the article, the author mentions sending "1.2 terabytes in a few hours" with 10ms latency. This sounds like a gigabit network with a few router hops in the middle. Maybe 100mbit if "a few hours" is interpreted longer than I would. So we're talking about connecting two machines, possibly in different buildings, but likely within a thousand kilometers. It's honestly the use case I have the most often, and certainly one useful to have tools supporting the use case. This person seems to be worried about off-site backups, so I'm thinking "enterprise", not "cross-country home user".
