PeerApp Performance
  "With PeerApp we need half the caching hardware we would need if we use other caching appliances. And by supporting the most protocols and services, the UltraBand is able to produce more bandwidth savings for the same amount of traffic.

Perhaps most importantly, our users clearly notice that YouTube no longer waits to buffer the video."
