The ability to securely distribute keys at high rates is of crucial importance for the future of practical quantum key distribution (QKD). In state-of-the-art continuous-variable (CV) implementations, these rates are limited by the bandwidth of the detectors. With recent publications showing shot-noise limited homodyne detectors in the GHz regime, CV-QKD with GHz rates may soon be a reality. In our work, we analyze how this high speed regime might impact current experimental setups in fiber and free space and discuss possible improvements.
