I agree that p2p is more efficient for any single transfer. However, if both

That's probably better, but the gestalt of the discussion at the moment
seems to be "server-assisted transfers are stupid," which is why I posted in
favor of server intermediation. You pointed out another way in which
server-assist might be advantageous -- distribution.

If p2p is the One True Answer, maybe we should ditch the jabber server
altogether and just chat over gnutella.
