Also there are servers, and there are servers.

Traceroute or ping creamshots.com .. The is a domain on a dual p4 server running 100mbits constantly. The graph for that port on the router is solid green. That server has about 5 or 6 of my domains, doing cumatively ~1,000,000 hits a day. It's constanly pinned, but it chugs away without fault and answers my pings in about 50ms. Some of the domains have gallery directories with literally tens of thousands of html files in it. One root directory I was lazy with has about 40,000 files, and still answers snappy with the network card pinned at 100mbits. This is an extreme example, and is for free movies on galleries so It can be a little slower, but overall a good deal for $0 extra on top of my bandwidth usage.
