In terms of joules per second, perhaps not, but surely the question
is about practicality. Will the "D" in DHT mean that a DHT-based map
is fast enough in practice? I'm not sure that question is really
different from one we've already discussed inconclusively: can
a caching mapping system cache enough entries close enough to
the ITRs?
