per user.  Supported by figures and charts, Winternals Software
demonstrates how ambitious this number appears to be.  In

Many content providers, e-commerce merchants, enterprises and
other businesses suffer from overloaded Web servers and slow

alleviating many of the problems arising from delivering rich
media.  In the following whitepaper Volera explores the
hardware and software elements of CDNs and introduces the
Volera Velocity CDN.  The Volera Velcity CDN is described as a
