It's pretty tough to make an ethernet run TOO long in a normal residential application. Even Cat5e max recommendation is 100 meters with about 5ns propagation loss per meter. Even in a very large home, 30m or so is about as long as you would typically see.

Yeah you probably need some sort of yard and connecting buildings for that to matter.

The max for 10Gbps is probably shorter.

Its actually the same 100m recommendation, just with Cat6a.
