Actually they analyze the delay between the measurement point in CCZ and the *remote* peer, splitting out residential and non-residential peers. 57% of the peers are residential. Sounds like a lot of the traffic is p2p. You could argue that the remote, residential p2p peers are not on "typical" connections and that this traffic doesn't follow the time-of-day usage patterns expected for applications with a live human in front of them.
