I thought this paper is relevant and did not see it in the ALTO or P2PI archives

http://arxiv.org/abs/0812.0581

From the abstract :

In this paper, we perform extensive experiments on a controlled environment with up to 10 000 peers to evaluate the impact of locality on inter-ISP links traffic and peers download completion time. In particular, we show that high locality values enable up to two orders of magnitude saving on inter-ISP links without any significant impact on peers download completion time.

------

This would be a very encouraging reduction of inter-ISP traffic if it could be approached in practice by what we are doing here.

This is not a simulation, but an experiment run on the Grid’5000 network with 1700 nodes. Since the lead author is subscribed to the ALTO list, I am going to wonder publicly if it would be possible (and sensible) to test any ALTO solution with this experimental setup.

Regards
Marshall
