bkil I think YaCy is designed to query all of its peers in the federation in real time as it is implausible to replicate a whole WAN-crawler - it's more about physics than being naive. The reason it failed to gain traction was more about how it handled ranking and compositing results. It could probably be easily adjusted for this Small Web use case to always replicate the index and only query locally.
