I'm not saying that its easy, but the problem formulation in the article is simplified enough to be solved by this method. So I guess that my major objection is how the problem is stated.
Also in practice you don't really need N times the hardware. You pick out the queries with the worst jitter and either solve it or install two or three of these services, and you are good to go.
To summarize, I agree with you in principle, but would like to add that the method still is sound, but perhaps not in its most extreme form.
