OK, I'll check that.

There is currently no difference between HEP message exchanges between
(leaf<=>ultrapeer) and (ultrapeer<=>ultrapeer), so each connection
accounts for 10*3*8 / 30 = 8 bytes per second in and out, compression
will reduce this to 2 or 3 bytes per second. Would you say this is too
much?

The following can be optimized, though. Since a leaf node must not
forward messages between the ultrapeers it is connected to (and
therefore must not propagate HEP data between them), it is sufficient
for a leaf to send a HEP message ONCE to each ultrapeer and after that
only when the leaf's number of shared files or kilobytes has changed.
This will reduce incoming HEP traffic of the ultrapeers quite a bit.
I'll add that to the document.

I think that HEP will have very little impact on bandwidth
requirements.

Thomas.
