yes sure, it's 1mbit/s vs 50kb/s. but if I can run 200 nodes with 10mbits, I 
really don't care ;).
It's more about latency

Seem that they have begin to test with bigger clusters

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Hb0sJVVGcnlc_ry2SJnIy22ct34QVAXz9I3AmetBNcY/edit#heading=h.99ommvng5zql

"24th Dec
Executed the first batch of tests with 9 nodes.
Cpghum tests confirm that knet is still much faster (much higher bw and much 
lower latency) than udpu.


25th Dec
Fixed knet_bench template generation
Started testing with 16 nodes over 2 networks (still applying several 
workaround for PMTUd)
16 nodes testing + hacks still shows knet being a lot faster than UDPU
Testing 32 nodes (so far membership join/keep is stable)

"

So, it seem to be on the right way.

We need to compare multicast vs unicast ...

Multicast is known to work with 32 nodes (some reports exists with up to 64 
nodes), 
and some users even want bigger clusters. So any such test/benchmark 
should use up to 32 nodes, maybe more ...
