He hasn't ignored you, and he wasn't responding to your email specifically
but rather the general attitude displayed in this forum for the last
several months (and I'd argue the last year or so).
Your data is interesting but ultimately tell us what we already know - that
the next bottleneck after the hard coded limit could easily be propagation
speed. The solution is likely to be a better protocol. Matt's custom
network already has optimised things, rolling some of those ideas into the
P2P protocol may be a good place to start, or something fancier like IBLTs.
Regardless, the *next* bottleneck is not the protocol, it's the hard cap.
So the conclusion remains unchanged: Bitcoin must grow, and solutions for
scaling it up will be found as the need arises.
