Comment(by robgjansen):
I'd like to note that its easy to make clients trigger the "sparse exit
streams" effect , e.g. by having them download 1 bytes files. The hard
part is, as Kevin noted, coming up with an accurate client traffic model
that has close to the right quantity of requests and distribution of
requested file sizes.
While collecting client traffic characteristics in a privacy-preserving
manner is an open research problem, we can probably do something in the
short term that improves our "320KiB or 5MiB" model.
