A comment and question about rendezvous...

So I think rendezvous is cool, and Apple is pushing it pretty hard, and
a lot of people (note: articles posted today on OReilly macdev...) seem
to be accepting it.  But here's my question... I note that rendezvous,
being a broadcast-based protocol, is chatty as hell.  In the past,
chatty protocols have wound up being destroyed in the long run by
businesses and network engineers who (rightly so) say it doesn't scale,
and winds up bogging down LANs... (Witness the death of netbeui,
appletalk, etc) So what is different about Rendezvous that will keep
this from happening?  Anything?
