Not so simple, since in that the majority of peering would happen within the network, and the outbound traffic would still be very small, unless you manage to find a lot of unique torrents that are sufficiently seeded.

In order to do this they've invested in a 120 Gbit/s 30 mil long connection where the equipment and routers used, with a speed of 322 terabit, alone has cost around 45 million SEK.


I don't really get this. 30 mil i'm guessing is either miles or swedish mil? If the connection bandwidth is 120 Gbit/s what does the 322 terabit "speed" mean?


They added up the speed of all router ports I guess. 20000 10 gbit ports + 130000 1gbit ports = 322 terabit

Dreamhack never fails to impress me. They always do something in their tournaments that makes me wonder why this isnt the standard for e-sports yet.

Yeah I'm making use of it right now, it's so freakin' huge in here but haven't had any issues with speed so far, there was a minor hiccup close to the opening time.

This seems kind of pointless to me. If it was actually needed or useful to the event, I would say it was awesome, but it seems really silly to put up that much (government?) money for the express purpose of saying to everyone, "Come download a bunch of porn so we can say we broke the world record."


It's not pointless at all, it's a way to manifest Sweden as a pioneer in internet infrastructure. It's not just for show, it helps attracting big investors to Sweden, such as Facebook who is investing billions in a server complex in Luleå, with more business to follow.

120 Gbit WAN speed (internet)

how do you get it so fast? i have very limited knowledge in broadband/cable infrastructure. in australia, we are release FTTP to every house at ~100Mbps, but 12Gbit? is that different measurement? lol

This haha.

15k computers + even more people should generate quite some heat. Ofc, sweden is pretty cold at this time of year, but DH summer must be expensive as shit to keep cool.
