Balancing Push and Pull for Data Broadcast

Summary: Push vs pull in data broadcast: Extend Broadcast Disks with a client backchannel for explicit requests. Scalability and warm-up analyzed; backchannel helps but can saturate the server; proposes three techniques to delay saturation. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
