You could use cache_host_acl to select which neighbors to use based on
ACLs that you create. However, there is currently no way to select
based on file size since the URL does not have any size information in it.
What you could do, however, is to issue a HEAD request and hope that
they have a Content-Length. I think this would be tricky, and would
slow down the neighbor selection.
