Does BTSync support perfect forward secrecy?
The following post suggests yes, but it is kind of old and points to a security page that no longer exists:
http://security.stackexchange.com/questions/53981/bittorrent-sync-encryption
This page suggests that PFS doesn't apply since Sync doesn't use TLS:
http://forum.bittorrent.com/topic/29358-heartbleed-perfect-forward-secrecy/
Is there any further information on this?
Thank you,
John

Is there a maximum number of users I can share/sync a folder with using BTSync? I'm looking for either a hard limit (ie, BT sets a limit) or else a practical limit (ie, performance drops off dramatically when a folder is shared with more than X number of users). I would be interested in any limits both for the Free and Pro versions.
The background to my question is that we are developing a private content delivery network utilizing file sharing services, and wanted to check how scalable file sharing is with BTSync.
Thank you very much for your input!

Thank you for the feedback. I went to the page you pointed to, but didn't see anything specifically about perfecto forward secrecy. Is there a specific link to a page which discusses this?
Best regards,
John
