In my opinion that's the most important argument for keeping it "below or
as close as possible to 1 GB".

We must take into account not only the fact that there are many end users
that have restrictions in terms of available bandwidth, but also the fact
that these same restrictions, can result in a reduction of users willing to
test images.
