We are all working remote right now, so no 10 Gbps unless you are VPN’d to on premise hardware.Download from M365 to remote desktop via avg speed – 1 hour.Eevery tenant performance varies but we all know that it is dog slow.Build export from search in Core eDiscovery – 8-12 hours.This is more than the average litsupport tech wants to tackle.
