 There could be another cause: for example suppose all the DPI boxes count
 connections to each IP address and upload the logs to a central place,
 then the firewalls only apply their timing/entropy heuristics to popular
 destinations. It wouldn't surprise me if a firewall vendor were uploading
 customer connection logs in order to do data mining on them.
