Did you notice that last year the rate of increase on the Gmail homepage slowed considerably?

In fact, the current rate increases storage by just 4 bytes per second which is only 345.6 Kb per day. Equivalent to one unoptimised photo from your digital camera.

So how long will it take for online storage to grow from today’s 7.3GB to 10GB?

4 bytes per second growth
7438.721503: Current MB
7438721503: Current bytes
10000: Target MB
10000000000: Target bytes
2561278497: Shortfall in bytes
640319624.3: Seconds to get there
7411.106762: Days
20.30440209: Years

20 more years until Gmail online storage grows to 10GB!
