It's true, but even with a Gigabit connection between the DB Server and
the App Server, retrieving data and sorting or filtering it in the app
server still has a much bigger cost. I worked for 2+ more in a company
that makes a very good business with a sniffer tool; lots of clients
where network depts that wanted it to prove there was a problem
somewhere else (application design).

That is true if your company is still using a client-server architecture.
Many new projects today use the Application Server model, so usually the AS
is very close to the database server.
