Sure, if I can get some CPU time I'd be happy to. Do you have any more 
information about the difference between sdiz's scheme and random 
replacement? The simulations I've done so far have used a random salt 
for each node, so two keys that collide on one node probably won't 
collide on the next node.

Another problem is coming up with a realistic traffic model, which is 
something I keep running up against with simulations (not just Freenet, 
PhD stuff as well).
