My personal opinion is that I don't see a widespread need for more capacity given horizontal scaling and servers that can already exceed 1 Tbyte of DRAM; bandwidth is also helpful, but I'd be concerned about the increased latency for adding a hop to more memory.

This slowdown may be mitigated in Windows 11 but in the latest Windows Server editions – where it matters most – this bug is alive and well. Downloads go through the cache, the cache is saved to disk, and saves to disk are slowed by (some) anti-virus software. Server versions should be fine…. Case closed. But I digress….

Browser Caching: Although it may seem commonplace, caching is sometimes overlooked. Depending on how often you change content, you may want to set a long expiration time for your cache. Caching can ensure your browser doesn’t have to load all those elements if a visitor returns to your pages.
