Well that would work for simple hillclimbing. In a full genetic algorithm, every member of the population is the product of thousands of previous individuals.

I mean, we were talking about simple hill climbing.

Still, even more complex systems still do not require particularly high bandwidth. You only need to broadcast the fitness of the individuals, and from there each node can independently recalculate and combine the best ones.
