Uploads, in the UK at least, are generally much slower than download speeds. Very annoying when I'm trying to upload a new wordpress build to my site. Still, for the most part I don't think it's noticable. I think a lot of people don't even realise there is a difference, if their connection has that. Well, my download is at about 6mb/s.

I guess it's too late to change that architecture now though. It would make far more sense if the server requested cookies and only then are cookies sent, and only the relevant ones. I actually don't think I'll get over the stupidity of this :D In regards to bandwidth, download speeds may be much higher now, but upload is relatively slow. I think mine's about 350kb/s, so that's only about 44KB per second I can send these cookies to the server x_x Wow, that’s pretty insane. I guess it’s too late to change that architecture now though.
