Network virtual environments (NVE) are an evolving trend combining millions of users in an interactive community. A distributed NVE platform promises to lower the administration costs and to benefit from research done in the peer-to-peer (p2p) domain. In order to reuse existing mature p2p overlays for NVEs, a comparative evaluation has to be done in the same environment (e.g. resources of peers, peer behavior, churn, etc.), using appropriate test cases (scenarios) and observing relevant performance metrics. In this paper we present a benchmarking approach for p2p overlays in the context of NVEs. We define related quality attributes, scenarios, and metrics and use them to evaluate Chord and Kademlia as most popular p2p overlays and assess their suitability to NVE.
