Me when I reinstall a game from Steam that I also modded through the Steam Workshop.

Game installs in 5 minutes. The next hour (or day if it was ARMA 3; all the custom maps are HUGE) is the worshop mods getting downloaded and installed 😭

Arma3 mods were the reason that I learned steam cli has an insanely low ttl.

Steam is the only thing I have ever seen hit network speeds that hit the limit of what I pay for from my ISP.

I had 100 Mbps internet. It hit the full limit but some of those mods were BIG.

Your ISP must have a colocated Steam cache.

I’m my case, steam has servers in my city. It’s quite satisfying seeing a gigabit line saturated for gigabytes on end

Steam also has servers in my city as well. Once I got gigabit, my drives became the bottleneck.
