Qualcuno c'ha pensato, piu' o meno:

"What is Coral?
Coral is peer-to-peer content distribution network. It allows a user to
run a web site that offers high performance and meets huge demand, all
for the price of a $50/month cable modem. Sites that volunteer to run
Coral automatically replicate content as a side effect of users
accessing it. Publishing through Coral is as simple as appending a short
string to the hostname of objects' URLs; a peer-to-peer DNS layer
transparently redirects browsers to participating cache nodes, which in
turn cooperate to minimize load on the source web server. Using modern
peer-to-peer indexing techniques, Coral will efficiently find a cached
object if it exists anywhere in the network, requiring that it use the
origin server only to initially fetch the object once."
