Agreed. Do you know of such a network? And I don't see this being something realistic with the additional "last mile" bandwidth being rolled out. I believe that caches will be rolled out in significant numbers starting this year, and will only increase into next year.

But that's just my perspective ...

From Computer Networks? Any specific references that you found that were helpful in this specific area? I would be very interested ...

Thanx!
