The max-flow problem asks how much can be pushed from a source to a sink through a network of capacity-limited edges. Edmonds-Karp repeatedly finds an augmenting path and saturates it until none remain. By the max-flow min-cut theorem, the answer equals the capacity of the cheapest set of edges that, if cut, disconnects source from sink — the bottleneck.

Governing equation

∣ f ∣ = v \sum f (s, v) = 18 = cut min c (S, T)

Reading this result: Both feed edges are generous, so the bottleneck has moved to the fixed interior capacities — adding more feed capacity no longer raises the max flow (min-cut theorem).
