Further testing, i realized that if i restart BTSync on one of the remote machines, it starts to upload to the others, so the original computer is not seeding the same packets to all computers, as i suggested.
But until i restart one of them, the original seeder continues to upload the complete file to all computers.
I have been experiencing the same for a while now. (Version 1.1.82 )
Systems : A (windows) , B (linux x64) , and C (windows) are synced.
1. C begins sending a large file over a slow connection to A and B.
2. A and B each receive many different parts of the file from C.
3. The UI of A and B both note that they are hundreds of megabytes out of sync.
4. Transfer between A and B is never initiated until BTSync is restarted on system A or B.
5. Transfer between A and B outpaces the transfer of the original file from C.
6. A and B become synced with the available parts.
Uploading to multiple devices from slow connection - sending chunks multiple times?
