Summary: Formal bandwidth model links network parameters, data change rate, query frequency, topology, and currency to per-query bandwidth. Shows hierarchical, change-based updates scale to large indexes with modest bandwidth, arguing against centralized search. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
