True. ICP will work for up to 3-5 mirrors though. Mirrors are ideal
application for Cache Digests since mirrored content is static and does not
require frequent updates. Building and distributing a mirror digest is even
simpler than building an index and listening/replying to ICP queries, I
think.

Just a thought.
