Will it be considered reasonable if the script has to throttle 24/7 and a large % of users to keep the load down?

If this is true (and you have got my hopes up on false pretenses in the past) this is the most sensible, fair, and logical thing VM has ever done.

Indeed, my area doesn't even have the full 50mb service yet, 100mb will be another 6 months to a year, 200 isn't even close.

Bring on 400mb/40mb man.

I used to be like this, literally caned my 0.3/0.5/0.6/0.75/1.5/4.0/10.0 connection 24/7 to within 90% of it's maximum theoretical capacity for days or weeks on end. 75% of my total income would be spent buying more hard drives to put stuff on. But HDD sizes haven't grown as fast as broadband speeds so now I've started deleting a lot of "single-use" stuff after use :P

once 100mb upgrades are done im pretty sure wha ti have read about the upgrade it will be ready for 200mb, 400mb, 1.5gbit (well i think it doesnt require another upgrade) ie all teh trials and it bea quick upgrade as the ocnifguration is there for it once upgrade to 100mb the problem i think is all teh headend where out of date and couldnt do 100mb o had to get a big upgrade themself to do it, someoen liek inigition can probally correct me been a while since iready the stuff about 100mb upgrades

No, once the 100mb upgrades are done it will only be ready for 100mb, further upgrades are required for proper 200mb. Even more upgrades and a new CPE are required for 400mb.

The total capacity they're putting in per area for 100mb is only 200mb. Not even close for 1.5Gb, most of their current network isn't even remotely capable of handling that.
