I know of at least one. I'm sure there are more. It seems,
that equity in traffic exchange may be an overriding
principle, although running many web-farms and small
backbone can certainly give you that.
For NASA this is a current snapshot of NAP traffic
exchange:
mae-w:
5 minute input rate 2888000 bits/sec, 632 packets/sec
5 minute output rate 2949000 bits/sec, 718 packets/sec
mae-e:
5 minute input rate 5458000 bits/sec, 2437 packets/sec
5 minute output rate 8041000 bits/sec, 2157 packets/sec
The flows are constrained by an over-worked backbone,
but as a general rule out > in. As I said, web-farms
and a small backbone will give you that :-)
