Apparatus, systems, and methods can operate to provide efficient data transfer in a peer-to-peer network. A list of peer computers can be accessed and sorted by a data exchange metric. A requester peer is selected by traversing the list from a peer computer with a smallest data exchange metric to a peer computer with a largest data exchange metric to identify a peer computer with a pending data block request, the peer computer with the pending data block request being the requester peer and having an associated data exchange metric. A data block is then transmitted to the requester peer and the data exchange metric associated with the requester peer is updated to provide an updated data exchange metric for the requester peer. The list of peer computers can then be resorted. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are disclosed.
