Wow, you know a lot about Kad Network.
I asked about it because I was interested in scalability of DHTs.
I looked for cases of large scale DHT deployment and so far found only
Kad Network based on Kademlia.
According to Wikipedia, there are 3.5 - 5.1 million concurrent online
users in Kad Network.

A million non-firewalled peers...It is impressive again. I thought most
computers were working behind firewalls or NAT these days.

Do you know any other large scale DHT deployment?

Thanks.
