Hmm..where did you get this information ?-) I base my knowledge of DHT's
limitations on following text/publications:

a) http://www.cs.rice.edu/Conferences/IPTPS02/174.pdf
b) http://iris.lcs.mit.edu/proposal.html
c) http://ciae.cs.uiuc.edu/SRG/summaries/summary-9-4-02.html

They all discusses the limitation of DHTs, but I haven't been able to find
limitation related to "local store" problem.
