It's why upload speeds are barely overprovisioned at all, because they're not headline speeds.
Interesting view point that seems to account for the modest increases. I am wondering why some have been boosted to 335 max traffic rate whilst others are up to 345Mb.

The upstream config is over-egged to the point that I always get > 20Mb.
