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. It was a great privilege. Ford, et al., “TCP

With the ever-growing demands of the internet, websites and web applications face the challenge of delivering content swiftly and efficiently to users worldwide. Latency is a concept that increases with distance, so a signal that has to travel 1,000 KM will be much faster compared to a signal sprinting for that 100,000 KM.

The area he was in was served by satellite internet access, and experienced significant latency (a floor of 506 milliseconds) and packet loss (between 50-80% was typical). To counter this, the school he was visiting sets up their own local caching server. Every technology creates winners and losers. HTTPS is no exception.

On the other hand, if done at design, it is probably the best solution because it will allow the application to define the sharding rules and can also optimize the different data sources using different technologies for different uses. However, if we can already identify some benefits here, that will be an interesting result.

Estimated Input Latency tells us if we are hitting that threshold, and ideally, it should be below 50ms. Designed for the modern web, it responds to actual congestion, rather than packet loss like TCP does, it is significantly faster , with higher throughput and lower latency — and the algorithm works differently.
