Where are they planning to take off from? All the space centers I have ever heard of have always been in remote locations. And last time I checked, these aren't in abundance in Japan...
So if 1 million machines are actively scanning for other machines with 200 threads. With ipv4 there should be 4211604225 theoretical public ips. If they were scanning with 200 threads/sec, they could cover the entire ipv4 address space in 21secs.
Granted, I know not all 1 million are scanning, and I prolly screwed up in my ip calculations, but this still an astronomical number.

If your concerned about 1000BaseT latency, why not change your settings to 10/100 instead of auto?

Good thing you posted this before lunch...

Actually it doesn't. Yes, it is normally located on the same computer as the *client* but that doesn't mean it can't be on the computer beside you.
