ResumoPeer-to-peer file sharing applications have evolved to one of the major traffic sources in the Internet. In particular, the eDonkey file sharing system and its derivatives are causing high amounts of traffic volume in today’s networks. The eDonkey system is typically used for exchanging very large files like audio/video CDs or even DVD images. In this report we provide a measurement based traffic profile of the eDonkey service. Furthermore, we discuss how this type of service increases the ”mice and elephants” phenomenon in the Internet traffic characteristics.
