I have not received any answer to my question of how many instances 
of I-root are
sitting on the PCH CDN service identified. Anecdotal evidence
shows that PCH locations and I-ROOT locations are almost an exact match so
I'm going to "guess" that most of I-ROOT is running on the PCH "CDN". 
I would appreciate confirmation so I can make my research conclusions 
accurately. I
would much rather have an authoritative answer from Autonomica or PCH than
speculating using the PCH and root-servers.org websites.
