It's quite amazing to hear Anders advocating bloat in a world where most of the world still has bad internet connections and hate large downloads, mobile phones prefer 1MB applications over 10MB apps, where RAM can be a bottleneck, where battery life is always too short and where many large organizations struggle with bad performance.

I recently had the chance to see the standard configuration for virtual servers in a large organization. In order to improve network traffic, the standard network adapter is limited to 10Mbit/sec.
