It is the object of the present invention to provide a processing apparatus, processing method, processing program and recording medium capable of reducing the concentration of load upstream in the communication path of a network, and to improve the efficiency of a network system. A processing apparatus in a network system, which includes a plurality of processing apparatuses that are connected together via communication paths and in which identical data files are stored in the plurality of processing apparatuses, includes: a communication-load-information-acquisition means for acquiring communication-load information related to the communication loads of each of the communication paths between the one processing apparatus and each of the other processing apparatuses; a communication-load-comparison means for comparing the communication loads of each of the communication paths; a request-information-transmission means for sending request information based on the comparison results by the communication-load-comparison means to one of the other processing apparatuses, which is connected by the communication path for which the communication load is relatively small and which has the data file, requesting that specified data be sent; and a data-reception means for receiving the data that is sent from the other processing apparatus.
