    nah i think that the storage requirement grows approximately linear with the number of users, and maybe in the worst case quadratically; but the typical case should be linear.

      In an ideal scenario for sure, but in implementation you’re going to run into issues like network throughput and resource access distribution optimization (i.e. feynman parallarity). I got out of the house without a whiteboard or a single grad student (you just never remember the important things) so I can’t confirm more than napkin math, but you may indeed be right that it’s at worst quadratic.
