Isn't the obvious case a leaf cache connecting to a ISP using a CARP
based cache?

I silly question (I haven't read up on CARP yet): How is the CARP cache
distribution factors distributed to CARP clients?

To keep a reasonable hit rate it is important that all clients use the
same distribution. If they use different distributions then the cache
iseffectively split in several more or less disjoint caches.
