First, even many times the numbers you suggest could easily be served by pipes much smaller than O'Reilly's. Even if you were right with your numbers, don't you want the technology to suit the needs of its users, and not be stuck with the limitations of some early broken implementations? -

Want: of course.
Can have: maybe not.
I think most people would rather have limited functionality (meaning abstracts) all the time than have full functionality (full posts) at an irregular basis because the service is down more often than not.
