Thanks, Pierre. That was an interesting paper. I would love to implement this kind of implementation for Google SoC, even though it's a bit more complicated than I imagined. They seemed to get some great benefits for only minor drops in peak bandwidth. Their actual implementation doesn't seem unfeasible. The idea of having clients handle resources seems very different to me, but provide some incredible advantages. I think it would need some additional helper library could encapsulate a bit of this on the client side if the developer chose to. Would this type of implementation be something you guys would want to see as a Google Summer of Code?
