this is not correct. tcp doesn't help at all when the wire is fast (short, fat). it's the classic tradeoff of cpu
for (networking) performance. the wire being fast enough is an argument against using tcp,
not for it.
so really, it's the gobs of cpu we currently have that make tcp not an issue, not the gobs of bandwidth.
